Can not connect to a socket, patch 1.41

[berggren]

Hi,

I downloaded and installed patch 1.41 and the new map, can't remember it's name. However, after I did this, when I try to log in on Battlefield 2 (online) I simply get "Cannot connect to a socket".
Why? I have been downloading patches and maps since Battlefield 2 was released, so WHAT can be the problem? Seriously need help, thank you.

It's probably a Firewall issue.

Try disabling your firewall or allowing full access on BF2.
