For the past week, I have been unable to collect to LimeWire. I was having no problems before this. The only thing I get is "Starting Connection", but I can't seem to get to the "Turbo Connection" that I used to. Can anyone help?

Give us your details, please.

I used to only wait a minute or less to get a turbo charged connection to LimeWire. On the bottom of my screen there is a fire wall in front of the "globe" next to the connection display. I have tried to delete and then add the itmes in the Firewall folder, thinking that this might help, but it did not. Recently, my internet provider was taken over by a new company, and I am wondering if that has something to do with it? Perhaps they changed something? I have a Dell computer with 1 GB of memory. I have quite a bit of memory left. I'm thinking that I may have to uninstall LimeWire and reinstall it, but I'm not sure if I would have to pay the yearly fee again. I have dial-up, not cable DSL. Again, this has only been within the past two weeks. Do you know if anything internally that I can check or that may be causing this?
