You don't need to get your world registered in order for people to be able to visit it. You just need to fix your network configuration.

Exactly what you need to do depends on how your PC and network are set up. For example, whether you have a PC with a modem, directly connected to the internet; or a PC that connects to the internet via a router.

Most problems come in the second scenario - when the PC is connecting via a router. There are several posts on these boards that might help you - eg http://theuniversal.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=132, about 3 posts higher than this :)

Your firewall may also be a culprit... but it's perfectly possible to run a world and have people connect, even with a firewall in place. Make sure you configure your firewall to let traffic through (TCP and UDP) both directions to your world server program... it may also help to configure a specific port.
