I am trying to use ServerSocket with port 2649, and other people cannot connect. It works fine with localhost. This is the error people get when trying to connect:
Exception in thread "main" java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect

I have port forwarded, and I do not have a firewall active on my computer. Here are the settings I used when port forwarding.

When I check port 2649 on canyouseeme.org, it says the connection timed out.
I am using Windows XP too. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
EDIT: Here is the code I am using

public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception {
System.out.println("Starting...");
File file = new File("C:/Testing.txt");
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket(2649);
System.out.println("Ready for connection");
Socket socket = server.accept();
OutputStream output = socket.getOutputStream();

out.writeObject("C:/Testing.txt");
byte[] buffer = new byte[socket.getSendBufferSize()];
int bytesReceived = 0;
while ((bytesReceived = in.read(buffer)) > 0) {
output.write(buffer, 0, bytesReceived);
}
out.flush();
out.close();
in.close();
server.close();
socket.close();
output.flush();
output.close();
System.out.println("Finished");
}
