Well no answer to my post about your modem...

So as one last ditch effort, because you have tried absolutley eveything we can think of, try installing PeerGuardian, it will help keep the fake hosts out...Remember to enable PG just before you start limewire up...
Phoenix Labs » PeerGuardian 2


If that doesn't work, you will need to go and buy a new modem/router and make sure it's an easy one to Port Forward...

Download the pg2-nt.exe (PeerGuardian 2 for Windows 2000/XP/2003 0.84MiB).

Also, you could try totally disabling the Live OneCare firewall & see if LW will connect when you're using the normal XP firewall. Just make sure that you do turn on the XP firewall (if it doesn't happen automatically) once you disable the OneCare firewall.

Don't forget, you'll have to allow LW access through the XP firewall
