Hi,
While this may work, it does leave your computer unprotected unless you are using a firewall on a router.
A better way is to open the UDP ports Diablo uses. They are 6112 through 6119 inclusive IIRC (don't have Diablo installed at this time). In XP SP3, go to control panel, security center, manage security settings for firewall, exceptions tab, add program. If that doesn't fix the problem, go to add port instead of add program. Add the port numbers above (you might just need one). Be sure that the scope is any computer and that the type is UDP.
If all that doesn't work, give us more info and we'll try something else.
Good luck.
