==Easy Method: Warcraft3-Lan-Emulator==
Since my Ping is getting much worse when playing with Battle.Net, I've also been looking for a way to play Warcraft 3 (and Frozen Throne) over Hamachi.
Here's the easiest way to hamachify WC3:


Host:

- Start Hamachi and host Warcraft3 as usually, wait for clients


Client:

- Start Hamachi, join the same Channel as the WC3-Host

- Download a Warcraft3-Lan-Emulator (I've packed Lancraft and Yawle here: http://tinyurl.com/warcraft3hamachi )

- Start one of the two Warcraft3-Lan-Emulators (note that they do not need Administrator rights on Windows Vista/7)

- Type in the Hamachi-IP of the Host in the Warcraft3 Emulator and use it to start WC3

- Click network game. Now you should see the server and be able to join!

- Enjoy your better ping!


Host:

- Start the Warcraft3-Game now



If this does not work, try one of the methods below.


==Troubleshooting==
If you try to join a Lan Game via Hamachi and you do not see any open games when there should be open games this is the way to fix it:<br>
Windows: Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Network Connections -> Advanced (in the menu of the "Network Connections"-window. If you're using Windows Vista, press alt to make the menu bar visible.) -> "Advanced Settings" -> in this dialog move "Hamachi" to the top of the list.<br>

You might have to restart your computer for these changes to take effect.<br>
Also you should check if ping (double-click on your friend in Hamachi) works. Ping needs to work from both sides. If ping does not work it's a firewall problem.

Step 1: Find the dialog here<br>

Step 2: Move Hamachi to the top of the list<br>

<br>

Now you are able to join games!

In addition to this, to be able to host games there are a few factors which could attribute to your games not being seen.

Make sure to set Hamachi > System Menu > Preferences > Status > Detailed Configuration > Connecting Through NAT < UDP & TCP ports to an enabled forwarded port on your router. Make sure that your WC3 game also has an enabled port forwarded to the computer. If you have multiple computers on your network, you may want to consider setting static IP addresses and customize the ports so that they're different for each machine.

Also, in Windows Vista, open Network & Sharing Center & set your Hamachi network to Private. Under your hamachi network goto View Status > Properties > highlight Client for Microsoft Networks & hit properties. Set the Name Service Provider to Windows Locator. Hit ok. Enable QOS Packet Scheduler. Disable TCP/IPv6 if enabled. Highlight Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) & hit properties > Advanced & enable Automatic metric. Hit OK OK CLOSE CLOSE.

Goodluck!

==Solution==
There is also one thing you have to take notice of. Me and my friends were testing out just a few stuff to get left 4 dead working, which it didnt at first. Until I saw that local IPs should be very similar, which they weren't. The solution is this:

(Turn on show hidden files)

1. Open up C:/Documents and Settings/"Your username"/Application Data (AppData in vista)

2. Exit Hamachi, then delete the Hamachi folder in the location stated above.

3. Restart Hamachi, and you and your friends need to hit the power button at almost the same time in order for all of you to get similar IPs!

4. Should be working now :D
