It didn't work for me. Running XP Pro & LW Pro 4.9.37. Funny thing, I installed the free version on a laptop and it connects. Both say there is a firewall but all I have is a router, Netgear WGT624 v2. The desktop machine where LW Pro runs does NOT have any software firewall. Is there a later version of LW Pro? Is there another fix for no connectivity?

Limewire also told me that I had a firewall running when I didn't.

Made my entry before running thru all the entries. Started at the first and gave up and made the entry. Since then I started at the latest/current and worked backwards and found the Gnutella.net fix. Replaced my file with the downloaded one and its up and running. Darn, lost all my preferences. First I'll get my 3,000 song library back online.

No firewalls, I have a big hammer!!!!
