Have you checked with yr ISP that they are not suddenly blocking P2P -- also when you upgrade LW yr previous settings are changed - you have to go back into LW options and recheck Also check in yr Add/Remove Programs that you only have 1 version of java.

Thanks for the message
I've checked all of these settings and they were already in place for the most part. I changed the one setting that was not in place and still no luck.
As for Java, I have a "Java runtime environment 6" and a "Java 6 Update 5" installed in Add/Remove programs. I would think that they both need to be there since one is an "update", no?

NO -- you should have only 1 version of java runtime environment in your add/remove Programs -- keep the latest and delete the other -- let us know how you get on
