connect/download issue
 
I have had problems connecting, however now my problem is not connecting but it is downloading. After reading hundreds of threads here to see if i could fix my problem i found something out. In the bug report, it say "received incoming this session:false". I presume this is an firewall issue however i do not know how to disable a firewall if i have one. I looked at the instructions for disabling a firewall for windows xp but i have windows me and in my control panel there is not an option for network connections. Can somebody please walk me through this. Like i said i have windows me and a cable connection. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

temporary fix
 
thank you very much for the help..when i followed the directions on the link you gave me my computer restarted and limewire worked completely, however it didnt last long. Its back to the same situation of waiting for a connection and when i do get a turbocharged connection i am not able to download. I still believe it may have to do with a firewall for windows me, but i dont know how to bypass that. any more help will be greaty appreciated
