Yes! It finally works!! I've been using the old Frostwire version for about a year just fine and just recently downloaded the new version of Limewire. It was working slow and kinda weird, then suddenly I got that same darn message "Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected to the network." I did EVERYTHING there had to do with the firewall.... until I did the gnutella.net recommended by digdeep and followed skyliner's way above... which worked! I also removed the old Frostwire version at that time, then restarted my computer. When I restarted, it kicked in. Thanks so much!
