Since writing the above have found my so called solution does not work. The message I receive is this:-
Internet connection required
You need to be connected to the Internet to continue.
Please check your security settings
It could be that your firewall is blocking the game from connecting to our online store. We are aware that programs such as Zone Alarm, Norton Internet Security or the built-in firewall in Windows can cause this problem.
First of all, please check if you are connected to the Internet. If you are and the problem persists, please check your firewall settings and allow a connection to Zylom. All of our games are guaranteed to be virus-free, so it's completely safe for you to change your settings. If you don't know how to do this, please open the help section of your firewall or ask a family member, friend or computer expert to help you.
How do I allow a connection to Zylom?
