Thanks, everyone. I appreciate the suggestions. :)
Ok, I can connect to Spam Vikings. Also, I did open port 4444 in my router before I posted, so maybe it is my ISP blocking the port. I use Wide Open West, btw. As far as I know, they don't block ports, according to the guys at
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/wow. I've been using them for years and so far they have been an amazing ISP. Nonetheless, I'll get on the phone right now and ask them to check it out for me.
Btw, this is a fresh install of windows and UT, aside from a few things I copied over like .ini files and some crosshair stuff.
Also, here is an excerpt from my .log file:

EDIT: I called my ISP and they reassured me that they don't block any ports. I also took my router out of the equation by connecting straight to to the modem. Still no deals :(
Thanks again. :)
