In Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes -- if still no good click on (Fixes for LW when LW isn't operating as it should) if after all this your problem remains click on (system details) fill in and post back here

1. Try these options: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html

2. If still no good, downgrade to an earlier version of LW, such as either LW 4.16, 4.14 or 4.12 LimeWire - OldVersion.com

Thanks LOTR I was orignally on 4.16 and that was where the problem began - I upgraded to 4.18 and it was okay for a few days.

Shall try to roll back to 4.12 and see how I get on

Sure lol worth a try. Else 4.14. You may need to remove & re-add your firewall rule for each version.
