So, I changed my preferences on Windows FireWall - still nothing. So, I deleted the new version and went back to the old version I had and it still didn't work.

I've tried everything. I've turned firewall both on and off, still nothing. I added LimeWire to the list of programs allowed, still nothing. I've restarted my computer a thousand times and reinstalled the program a lot.

Is there just something wrong in general with limewire, or is there something I can do?

In Limewire Links (below) click on (Fixes for LW when LW isn't operating as it should) if your problem remains click on (system details) fill in and post back here
