TVDinners is flying high
Exclamation Limewire hangs at connecting to network

WinXP Sp2 Home - 2 installations (partitions) *prob on both
Comodo Pro Firewall - currently set to "allow all" - win firewall disabled
AVG Antivirus and anti spyware
512 mb ram
80 gb free space
DSL - Qwest - Qwest 1000 dsl modem
No router
Connecting from home - no network - Ogden UT USA
Limewire 4.14.12
Java 1.6.0_03
'Your test worked!'
Limewire has worked fine for months until yesterday
Limewire has detected my firewall
Hangs with 1 green bar
I have tried the preferences fix, dnr's the whole app, reinstalled java and no luck. I have multiple os's installed and problem occurs on both.

Funny thing about this problem, is that after hours of researching and trying different fixes, I finally decided to try other p2p apps to see if they worked. Several didn't, then I tried bearflix and it worked fine.
I'm starting to think that my isp Qwest began blocking me, maybe me in
particular, considering that i've probably downloaded 50 gigs in the last few months. I haven't came across any information about Qwest blocking/limiting p2p bandwidth, but who knows.
