I have since uninstalled 4.16.3 the 2nd time, and installed 4.17 beta now(no preferences folder or gnutella file), and brickwall is gone as well. I will leave it running & see if any uploads happen.

By the way, the only file I can find to download/install is LimeWireWin(~4mb) which I get when clicking on either the Get Basic button or the 4.17 Beta button. I tried cancelling it as you said, but was no other option to download anything. Is the file I should be getting?
Just out of curiosity...in your first post, you said that 4.16.3 showed no prefs folder or gnutella.net file but it was ok because you'd just got a copy of the gnutella.net file...where did you put that file?
It's just that the gnutella.net file lives inside the prefs folder so I'm a bit confused about what you did with the file if you had no prefs folder to put it in.

Are you sure that you've enabled showing of hidden files & folders (to be able to see the prefs folder)?

Check the screenshot here to see the option to download the offline installer.
