Help me set up multicasting?

Hi all!
I'm trying to set up Adobe After Effects 6.5 to cluster with the other computers on my network. The only problem is that I can't seem to get it to see any of the peers?
I have to admit that my knowledge of network protocal isn't exactly at 'uber' status, so I'm hoping someone here can help me out.
I have a Netgear FVS318 8-port firewall/router.
My main machine has an IP of 192.168.0.5, and my other pc which I'm trying to set this up on has an IP of 192.168.0.3

The cluster software on both computers has a Multicast configuration field and both of the computers show the address of 224.0.0.140 in this field.

Does this address have to different on each pc? and how do I enter this into my firewall settings? i can't see a multicast option anywhere?

Thanks in advance for any help!

All year long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. Then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?
