I posted my last bulletin and got no help yet.
I only have one connection bar when i open limewire.
I posted all my information in my last post.

Thanks.

P.S.
Please help me soon

AO firewalls? How about disabling them & using XP firewall instead & configure it to allow LW full access. Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

Beware of AOL security. It has a spyware utility that thinks P2P programs are spyware & will either remove them or remove parts of the program & result in it not working properly. Put LW on its safe list or else, use a safe one like Spybot - Search & Destroy (FREE)

You apparently like to double-post which is against the forum rules. Also, somebody did reply to your post. I have merged all your posts here.

I have done everything you wanted me to do and it still will not work...On my aol firewalls LW has full access. Is there anymore advice anyone else has for me?
