If the issue is indeed due to a firewall (local or on the network perimeter), the participant needs to edit the firewall's rules to allow Inquisit to communicate with the server.

To enable TLS support under XP, see http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaushal/archive/2011/10/02/support-for-ssl-tls-protocols-on-windows.aspx

Everything works fine on one of my laptops (Windows 8 with Chrome), but on another (XP with Chrome) I get the following popup message when the Start button is pressed (to begin the study): "Inquisit was unable to contact the server to verify that this script is licensed. The script will not be run." Any ideas why I'm getting this message? I do have a license. Thanks.
