Hi
Within the Public Games List (the game lobby you enter when you click Multiplayer -> Custom Games)
90% of Games within the Public Games List are grayed out. I've been playing since beta, and this is the first its occurred. I did find one or 2 games where I could indeed join, but definitely in the minority. It was about 24 hours ago since my last custom game, so I've only run across this problem tonight.
To see what I see,

(remove the space in image shack)
Since the games are disabled, rather than bugged or whatnot, I would have thought this would be a well documented issue. Sadly I've spent the last hour trolling these forums trying to find the solution. As such, I've read extensively about general common errors, vista32 bit crashing and port forwarding etc and have done most precautionary measures.
My next attempt will be to by-pass the router, but this doesn't strike me as that sort of issue. (connection to live is fine) However I just feel like there's something basic I'm missing.
Ideas or suggestions anyone?
