Check for a ban.txt in the root arma folder. They should show up there.

probably. I didnt know you could ban anyone in the Demo. The only way to completely ban someone in the retail version is to store the info into a ban.txt file. Otherwise you are just kicking them. Are you sure they just cant connect to your box?

Yup sad.gif The friend gets the message: "You are banned" or words to that effect. When you press P (for the players list) it comes up with kick, ban and somethign else (cancel probably)
The wierd thing is, I didn't ban him though hmmsmiley02.gif Wierd...

lol, quiet you!

Edit: Found "ban.txt" in my player profile folder (not in the root for some reason hmmsmiley02.gif ) But the "IP"s in there are just "999" I'll delete them ad see if it works a bit later.

It will. All Demo users start with 999 or are 999. Thus if a demo user is banned, all demo users are banned.

That's what I hear anyways.
