Well i can not connect but, it is saying a firewall is activated. how do I disable windows firewall? i disabled my anti-virus firewall and still shows it up.

i have windows 2000.

If you are behind a router, it may say that you have a firewall anyway even after you disable (it did for me). The firewall may not be your problem. My daughter got her LW fixed by copying down a new gnutella.net file (did not work for me though).
