Default Can't connect

Hey guys, I am interested in getting Pro but I wanted to try it out first. I can't get it to connect, it says "Connecting" but doesn't actually connect. My friend has it and likes it better than Kazaa. So far I'm looking at Kazaa. I've tried deleting the .Limewire folder, ran the .jar file, and numerous other things. I have a Linksys wireless B router hooked up with port 6346 open on it. I've e-mailed my internet provider and they said I should have no problem using this program with their service. I have no firewalls running. I am using the Beta 3.9.8. If anyone can help me I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
Nate

Look at the top of the connection problems page.
And you do need to get some more RAM

stief has a spectacular aura about

. . . and see if the tools->Options->Bug Report->view Example shows a line that says "accept incoming this session=true" (scroll down about a third to see it). If it says false, something is still blocking incoming connections.

Your set up looks right . . . so if you can accept incoming, maybe just checking the force IP box in the advanced options will help.

btw--there's a good discussion of LW ports here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=23585
