![]() I can not get my limewire to connect. It says it detected a firewall, but Ive done about everything I can think of. I have a wireless router made by Netgear, ISP is Mediacom. I did that test that it says to do and it says that it passed. All it says is that Limewire is enabling. I have the newest free version of Limewire. I did all of that plug and play nonsense, but that doesnt work, and I looked for the exception and it says that its allowed. My security is not on and it still says windows has detected a firewall. No clue whats going on. Can anyone help? thanks! |
