Can do this weekend... I will have to re-install.... probably just need to host a game on the Internet... give the IP address of your PC online to the people trieing to connect and then they connect to it

you make it sound very easy. my wife is shopping saturday(again) so i'm up for it. How many people can join in?

In the FM options choose to run as server. Then you start up a game, and when you've added yourself as a manager, in the game status page it should show 2 ips. A network ip and an internet ip, the network one will be usually something like 192.168.... or 10.0.... Give the internet ip to whoever wants to play, they can connect in join network game. That should work unless the guy hosting has more than one computer on one connection, then they may need to set up port forwarding, but thats a whole different matter.
