Red face Cannot stop portscans after using Limewire

Hi All

I`m relatively new to using Limewire and have a cable connection with
Zonealarm 2.6 installed.

Ever since using Limewire for the first time I`ve constantly been getting
portscans (up to 1 a minute) as Limewire doesn`t seem to have disconnected
me correctly.
Before I shut the program down I halt all downloads and uploads, yet there
still seem to be people trying to get at my files as if I were connected.
Obviously Zonealarm is protecting me, but it`s still a pain. Anyone know how
I can stop this from happening?

Apologies if I haven`t explained this particularly well, I hope it makes
sense...

Cheers

Richard
