Firewall doesn't permit connection

[jborges]

Hello everyone.
This is my first post.
I'm an old user of Limewire Pro 4.1.2.6 and Java 1.6.0_02. Never had problems before.
I'm using Windows Xp Sp2, 120 available hard drive, 1 giga memory, DSL Cable connection, Speedstream Modem, dLink DIR-300 Router.

Last week, I did buy System Mechanic 7.5 Professional, which comes with Firewall and antivirus and installed it to replace windows firewall and McAfee antivirus.

After install, I could not connect with Limewire anymore.

To connect to Limewire I have to disable the firewall. I looked on both Limewire and Firewall to see I could "declare" Limewire as a "clean" program. But, I couldn't find anything, anywhere there.

I already sent an email to System Mechanic Support. No answer so far. It may come in the next few days. Meanwhile...

Do anybody knows what can I do??

You said that you never had connection problems before. Have you always had the d-link router or is it new?? I found that you May need to forward a port. If it wasn't an issue before, then I'm not sure. May be just an issue with the New Security Program.

Port Forwarding for the Dlink DIR-300
