IP 81.xxx.xxx.xx //Your external IP
Port 27015//Opens up port 27015
i tried that and when it was ecicutng server.cfg it said that port was an unknown command and that it couldn't establish connect to steam servers
WEll delete the line port 27015...

For your other question you need to open up zone alarm go to firewall
make sure the "internet security" is on medium not high (trusted zone should also be on medium) then click advanced on the firewall tab (underneath trusted zone security box check;
Allow uncommon protocols at high security.
Allow outgoing DNS/DCHP In trusted zone on high security.
Allow outgoing DNS/DCHP In internet zone on high securty.
Disable windows firewall.
Filter IP traffic over 1394.
There that should be ok. If you're still stuck I'll post screenshots...
