I do not know anything about "Win XP media centre", I use Win XP (SP2) Home, but it is unlikely that this is the root of your problem.

You see, your ISP BT is famous (or should I say infamous) for blocking P2P traffic so I am not surprised that you, one of BT's many customers, cannot use your P2P app, namely LW.

I ditched BT some time ago because of their restrictive practices and treating their customers like idiots. As far as I am aware, there are only two ISPs in the UK that does not restrict P2P usage, i.e. NTL and Bulldog, but the situation could change because they both have "fair usage" clauses in their contracts.

Finally, there might be other UK ISPs that don't restrict P2P traffic, perhaps other forum members can help out with this point.
