Have you tried to open the listening port under TCP and UNP....?

Just a thought though......

Hi,

if you ment TCP / UDP I defined listening ports onetime for both seperatly services, othertime combined service for TCP/UDP at the router.

UPnP ON and OFF (manually settings); nothing worked

confused ...

Yeah, I meant UDP (typo....lol...)....

I have re-read your system stats and saw that you mentioned portforwarding.....hmm, usually we do not use UPnP when we have forwarded the port.

Your Netgear router and your static IP would definitely be a strong argument for using portforward.....
So, what I would try is to go through the whole process of portforwarding again, i.e setting up a static IP and then following the explanations at portforward.com regarding LW and your router:

Limewire & Netgear FWD114

I would even consider to uninstall LW prior to that attempt and delete any obsolete folders (using search on your computer and including hidden folders) as well as deleting any registry entry of LW (using Start>Run...."regedit")

Cheers
