Try doing it without your firewall up, that has messed with me a couple of times.

Download Bukkit and run it with hamachi

first off do you have a static ip?
if not fix it.
then you'll have to manually open port 25565
portforward.com is good for that

you would definitely need to portforward, since i highly doubt any1 even has a static ip these days, port forward 25565, and it should be good

I have a static IP, but I'm also running my own Exchange server. For most people, a dynamic DNS service such as DynDNS.org works fine. You will still need to open the port on your router.
