Open your Sharing Preference Pane.
This is assuming you're running the OS X firewall already.

Go to the Firewall tab and click the New button.
Hit the pull-down menu to "Other" and enter the port number and any description you want, like "Blizzard."

Close pref pane.

That's about it.

Your firewall came closed? I haven't changed a thing and I've always been able to make games in wc3.
