LimeWire is being blocked by a firewall and I don't have a firewall!
 

I have LimeWire 4.12.11, and whenever I start it up, there is a message that pops up that says "LimeWire was unable to initialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking LimeWire's access to the internet or loopback connections on the local machine. Please allow LimeWire access to the internet and restart LimeWire."
I don't have a firewall, so I'm guessing its the "loopback connections".
I have absolutley no clue what that is.
I am using Windows XP Professional, and I saw many problems like mine, only they had firewalls and I didn't.

Please someone answer back soon.

You probably have a Nat Firewall in your modem/router...
Could you supply these details please...

Aye, I wish I could supply that information, but this isn't my internet that I'm using, it's a friends. So, essentially what you are saying is that this has to do the the internet I am using?

Also, if there wasn't a Nat Firewall, what else could it be?

P.S. Thanks so much for replying!

If you are getting that firewall message then that's what it would be...
It's either a Nat Firewall or a security firewall that hasn't been configured correctly...
