Unhappy Need Help with Zone Alarm
Hi Everyone!

I’ve been using Limewire for a long time, but since I have updated the version I have not been able to solve my firewall problem. Please could someone give me some advise??

I’m using ‘Zone Alarm’ and trying to “add An Exception For The LimeWire Program” and “Add An Exception For The Gnutella Port”

When I open Zone alarm and click on firewall, I have the option to add, delete or edit. When I click ‘add’ I get the following options:
Host/Site
IP Address
IP Range
Subnet

I don’t know which one to pick and what to put in there. I put www.limewire in the host/site option and it found and entered the IP address automatically but the firewall still remains.

I also found the listening port number
as per instructions -= but I do not know where to enter this number to be able to “Add the port specified in LimeWire's settings as an exception for both UDP and TCP, incoming and outgoing (also known as opening the port)”

If anyone could help me out I would be very grateful

Cheers

Andy
