Knight35 is flying high
Default

I have Windows XP Home

I use Defender Pro Firewall and Anti-Virus

Windows Firewall Off

My main drive: Size 18.61 GB

Free Space: 10.78 GB Available
]
My connection type is dial up.

I use an ActionTec 56K External Modem

Connecting From Home Computer

My isp is PeoplePC regular

Was using LW 4.14 and JRE 1.6.0_01 when my problem began

I have since added Frostwire 4.13.1 and updated LW which did not work still yet. I also upgraded to the newest version of JRE and un installed my Limewire when it did not work in favor of trying FW. Neither Limewire nor Frostwire has worked as I am stuck at 1 bar. I canceled out my exceptions on my firewall and reinstalled Limewire once but it did no good.

On direct connect on Frostwire it reads (YOUR COMPUTER IS BEHIND A FIREWALL OR ROUTER AND CANNOT RECEIVE DIRECT CONNECTIONS. I don't understand direct connections so I doubt this means anything. Still I don't know how to change a firewall in the router if there is such a thing. I know my firewall service is working and I have LW as an exception.

I have done the test and everything checks out.

I am sharing my connection with BitTorrent.

I have been using Limewire for about six months and hae made only minor changes to my computer before now. Limewire connection just quit.

I have always had the brickwall in front of the blue planet icon since I started but it never hindered my use of Limewire.

I am UPnP enabled.

I am in the USA (State of Tx)

My Limewire worked fine and I can't understand what I may have done to screw it up.

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

My e mail address is *******
