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?

Yes..the test worked.

11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.

No.

12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.

New problem with long time experienced user.

13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?

Yes.

Limewire will sit at one green as if attempting to connect, but the connection never completes and I receive a message stating that there is no active internet connection. All other software is connecting to the internet and running smoothly.
