RAT reports which udp port is in use, so it's easy to create an exception in the Windows XP firewall.

Hi Brian, I've seen some similar problems before, On a WinXP system, if the XP firewall is up, I've seen it block the audio services. Or even in general if there is a firewall inbetween the the laptop subnet (wireless router?) there could be blockage there. On a MacOSX system, Some reason it doesn't support encrypted Venues. We have our own Bridgeserver here, The Powerbook couldn't see anyone due to the Venue had encryption on. Once I dropped encryption, it worked fine. I hope this will help!
