![]() 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. |
