I am new to the Limewire forum!!!!Not to Limewire!!!!

I started with downgrading my java to meet my version of limewire...that did not work......I have checked and rechecked my firewall it shows Panda Soft is allowing inbound and outbound to limewire......Yet I still have brick wall in front of blue globe......"I am at a loss"....if anyone can help it would be great! (She was working a few days ago)

Running:
Windows XP media sp2
Panda soft 2008
984 MHZ w/ 960MB RAM
Cable connection with MotorolaSB5101 Surfboard Modem
Linksys Wireless-G router 4-port Secured
173GB of free space on hard drive
Connecting from apt complex in the USA
(I am sorry but do not understand some of lingo in the p2p and UPnp sections
of the "Check here first!" section) I did try!
I ran the test in the connection problems section and it says it worked!

Any help is good help!!!!!!
Please let me know if you need more info!
Thanks mldy

Make sure XP firewall is disabled!
Make sure UPnP is enabled on your Linksys device. Log into it & check your UPnP option. It will have an internal firewall. You didn't specify exactly which model.
There is a possibility your apt complex has a firewall in there somewhere. Let's hope not.

Thanks kdev, actually that fix is already used by our forum long before you posted yours. But we appreciate assistance to forum members. That same fix applies to non-Vista users also but it won't fix all people's problems.
