A friend and I are trying to get online working so we can play BG2 together.  We both have SoA + ToB installed with latest patches.

We are able to connect via TCP/IP, and (after he disabled Vista's UAC) we were able to join the same game (where you get to create your characters and assign permissions to players).  Everything is fine up till that point.

However, when I actually try to start the game, he will freeze up, and then drop, leaving his characters under my control.  Meanwhile, Baldur's Gate II crashes on his computer.

Anyone ever heard of this problem before?  Because Vista's UAC was messing up his ability to connect earlier, I suspect that his crashing problem is probably a result of something incompatable with Windows rather than a problem with the software.  Tried disabling firewalls and antivirus, still to no effect.  For some reason Windows just doesn't like it when he tries to join the game.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried Hamatchi? Solves the majority of problems.
