To install MW4:Mercs 3.1 Free Release:
1) Download and install MTX 1.0.3.5 from here. Be sure to run as "Admin".
2) Start MTX, click on the Games Available tab, right click Mercs and choose Install. Note that there is an Options button and an Install button in
the lower corners of the screen. MTX can download via torrent (by default) as well as http. Make sure port 57030 is open for good speed.
3) You must open the following ports for MW4:Mercs 3.1 multiplayer (official article link):
For TCP both inbound and outbound: 47624
For TCP and UDP both inbound and outbound: 2300-2400
Mercs is a "DirectX 7" game. Disable UPnP on your router. Turn off all SW Firewalls, including the Windows Firewall. Check and see if your modem has a built-in router. Could your ISP be blocking any ports? Choose the 56K in-game connection speed to start.

No games listed on "Games Available" tab? Make sure MTX isn't running, find loader.ini and loader_dev.ini in the MTX folder and delete them. Start MTX. (Thanks Zert!)

Norton does not like the exe it keeps grabbing it and calling it a trojan.

known problem, most antivirus programs don't like it because of the encryption. We have contacted Norton to get it removed from the list of viruses. In meantime, turn off Norton during installation.
