No no, I'm not running both at once. Sorry for being kinda vague, I'll try to explain better.

I had Kazaa and it has always worked okay for me, it'll connect, I'll be able to download, all that good stuff. However I was told LimeWire works better, so I decided to try and download it last night. Of course I shut off my Kazaa while I was doing all of this. But when I set LimeWire up and tried to run it, all I would get would be messages on the bottom saying "disconnected" or "connecting"...for about a 2 minute period before it'd go back to disconnected.

I looked at the forums, and noticed some people saying it had to do with firewalls and this and that, yadda yadda yadda. I basically tried any of those tricks people are posting on the sticky posts at the top, but I'm getting nothing. Also, many of them said that they'd download Kazaa just to see if that'd work for them, and it wouldn't. So I decided to see if somehow the installation of LimeWire was screwing with my connection. I shut it down and launched Kazaa, and it was still connecting easily.

So basically...I'm lost and I have no idea what's going on...
