Hey Wolf, just logged on for a quick check before I went for the night.
Good to hear that solved your problem

But now we need to allow the application through your firewall so you can have your firewall enabled while playing.
What firewall are you using?

I thought of that but I didn't say anything because you went to sleep. It turns out the problem was after the recent patch, Zonealarm revoked the game's ability to act as a server. I gave it that ability back and now it's working fine.

The reason I didn't catch that earlier is because for some reason World of Warcraft never asked to act as a server as it normally does after every patch.

Thanks again.
