Actually, no I don't .

If you have questions after reading that FAQ then feel free to ask here but maybe be a little bit more specific...

My horrible english I want to know Why i can't play with others who have inside IP, using Direct TCP/IP. What is necessary to have: Programs, expensions and so on. Gamespy is for free?

To play directly over a tcp/ip lan you don't need any programs. Like it says in the FAQ, just find out the computer's IP (start/run/command type ipconfig to find it out, or go to www.whatismyip.com if you're online). Make sure firewalls are turned off (or the appropriate ports - listed in FAQ - are open) and if you're running with routers I might not be able to help you. There's an explanation of routers in the FAQ, but it's kind of complicated.
