| Have things just stopped working since you upgraded to Pro? Make sure that your XP firewall's off & then configure PC-Cillin to allow LW. PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall Next, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location). Fixes for LimeWire This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things.
