Gamespy wont start

[Muzzles56]

Whenever I start Gamespy Arcade, it says "Downloading Service Map. Please wait..." but if wont respond
I downloaded it with AvP 2. It works on my other computer, however, which is strange.... Does it only work on XP?

I didn't know anyone actually used gamespy. That site and its software has always been absolutely worthless, like punkbuster.

Gamespies still around? I always though of it as the old 90's aol dial-up service, outdated, and not very efficient

None of my friends use it, and I haven't talked to anybody that's used it in over 6 years.
