Default Barely connects, goes red after 2 seconds.

I click connect and it goes green, then straightaway red again.

Is this a firewall problem? i turned the firewall off (Agnitum outpost) but still it will not work.

I need a list of the fixes

Are you on a network? Does your ISP block fileshareing or Gnutella? If none of that is true than check the force IP box in the LW options. and open port 6346 in your firewall settings. Look at other posts about connection problems.

I figured it was my firewall, Agnitum OUTPOST, does anyone else have this and have a solution of how to open ports.
