10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?no
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of FW's interface?yes i do
Disable either your XP or Norton Firewall. These 2 firewalls will clash with eachother & result in less security, not more. And will also give LW firewall issues. And configure your other firewall. You could try XP firewall enabled just for the moment & disable Norton just to see if you can get connected; Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

* But I suspect the main problem here is connecting from a Dorm. Most schools & dorms now block or filter p2p programs.
