1. OS version? Windows XP
2. What firewalls you have? Norton Internet Security - given limewire permission
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.16.7 Java 1.6.0_05
9. Who is your ISP Tiscali
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. says your test worked
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? dunno
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall Norton Internet Security

any help is grateful - this is driving me mad! thanx in advance
In limewire links below click on (ISP's known to block P2p) You will see your ISP Tiscalli listed ----- have a read of this (ISP Problems... Namely "Tiscali" ) -- As a last hope you can try this (A Fix for those whose ISP's block Limewire) --
