Hi I'm using a custom built 3.2GHZ, 2GB SYS Win XP- Home, Avast home free anti virus program, Limewire Pro 4.18.8. I have completely shut down my Win Firewall, as well as my AT&T 2Wire Router literally but Limewire keeps telling me I am behind a Firewall and Direct connect is NOT even an option due to it says I am behind a firewall. I have uninstalled and re-installed started from scratch. Can somebody PLEASE help me here I really want my Direct connect back. I am completely new to this site so it I am having problems finding my way around it so please be patient with me too thanks. I am more of a hardware Tech, instead of software LOL thanks a lot to anyone who can help.
