Hello everyone, I have performed my little experiment, I disconnected my ethernet connection to my router, signed on to Netzero and ran Limewire, It STILL Didn't Connect. Hence the problem is either with my computer or limewire.

So to find out who is the culprit I downloaded a similar program (Bearshare), installed, then ran it.

Bearshare works perfectly, with no tweaks and no modifications This tells me the problem is with Limewire.

Limewire guys you've got to do a better job with your program, bearshare works beautifully. You might want to take a look at them.
