It is easier to do a direct connect with chat enabled. 1) tools 2) options 3) chat ---- check enable chat --- click apply then okay.
If you click on the direct connect tab in the search window. It will list your IP. Tell your friend this IP address to enter on there computer or the other way around if you want to direct connect to them. |

It will make it much more difficult if you are both behind firewalls. At least configure your firewalls to allow LW full access: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml
