-This error may sometimes happen if you have an internet security program that's holding your last connection in place. Do you have anything like that in place?
- Its  possible that your security program is blocking W3 from connecting on the internet . You have to go to : Internet Shield/Application Control/W3 ->change from Deny to Allow.

If you use Mac :

If you are getting the message that "Another program is using the port" when changing games in WarCraft III, this is usually because the port is still in use from the last game.

One way to resolve this is to wait a few seconds between games, at least 20-30 in some cases.

If this does not resolve the problem, a PRAM reset is in order. To do this, follow the instructions below:
- Shut the computer completely off.
- Press and hold Command (Apple) + Option + P + R
- Power the computer on.
- Continue holding the keys until you hear the chime 2-3 times.
If nothing helped you let me now and i will try to find another solution .

Try this...

Shut the computer completely off.
Press and hold Command (Apple) + Option + P + R
Power the computer on.
Continue holding the keys until you hear the chime 2-3 times.

or...

One way to resolve this is to wait a few seconds between games, at least 20-30 in some cases. Otherwise, close Warcraft III and restart it. This is a common Mac Warcraft issue that everyone experiences on battle.net.

Does changing the game_port = 6125 in gproxy.cfg makes a difference?Try putting 6231 for example it shouldn't be used for anything.Anyway i don't have a clue what those above are talking,he's using win xp not apple mac

Well just open it in a text editor and change the line which says game_port = 6125 to 6231
