Can't find the listeniong port name

When I try to follow the steps under the "Connection Problems" where I try to open a port for Gnutella I can't find the listening port name that I'm supposed to make a note of when step 17. It says within Limewire go to Tools>Options>advanced>Firewall COnfigurations.
The problem is I don't see any "firewall configurations" Am I not opening up the tools tab in the right window? What does it mean when it says "within Limewire" ?
Right now I'm just opening it up at the top of the page on the site. I can't access Limewire from my desktop icon as it says that there is most likely a problem with a firewall blocking problem so I'm trying to fix it but can't even complete step 1. Am I doing it in the wrong place?
