I have used lw for 3 yrs now and it worked great when i first got it. now it decides when it wants to work and whether it is behind a firewall or not. i rarely get a connection or any connection bars green in the bottom right hand corner.

my spec is:

OS; XP media centre
F/Walls; windows and Avast- but both are set to allow limewire
Ram; 1Gb
H/D Space; 124Gb
Connection; Wireless Broadband
W/Router; netgear
Connection;House
Limewire; 4.12.11 Java;1.6.0_01
Newish problem with kinda experienced user
And the firewall works when it feels like it...

If this probem could be sorted out i would be really really pleased

Thank you
