Cool. I will get ahold of xfire and at some point I need to get a mic, but I need to recover from the holiday spending frenzy that the wife and I went on before I can. I will try and get on and play this weekend.
I would love to join in the clan activities, but alas I only got the game for Christmas and as such I am still a newb so once I get used to the game a little more I will hit you guys up for some clan access.
I agree with Zonealarm being a good product, although be careful and make sure that you do update when the updates come out, I had a friend that didn't and after about a year, his iptables where thrashed!
