Stealth means it can't properly test your port due to a firewall.

Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
11. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
1. Windows XP SP 2
2. Dunno (Does Norton count?)
3. 512 MB
4. Out of 200GB, 168GB avaiable on one Hard Drive and 860MB on the other hard drive.
5. Cable
6. Teriyon
7. Home
8. LW 4.9.33 and dunno
9. Cox
10. Probably not.
11. Yes :S
