Firewall problem

Hello there,
I hv latest limewire (basic)
I dont hv any problem in downloading at all but when i click direct connect tab it says "your comp is behind a firewall or router and it cannot receive direct connections". Its confusing cuz when i move my mouse pointer to the "icon with picture of globe" the mesege is displayed "Limewire has not detected a firewall".
I hv selected the recommended options abt firewall.
How can i receive direct connections?
other info:
1. win 98 second edition
2. no firewall as such but norton antivirus unreg. version with "auto-protect" enabled. (which i suspect to be culprit)
3. plenty of ram and harddisk.
4. connecting type cable and operating from home.
5. ISP- Globecast
Connection not shared by other p2p.
Please reply.
