Default connection problems with version 4.16

Hi,
I have used LimeWire Basic for a long time and have only ever had the occasional connection problem. However, lately I have been completely unable to connect. This was with version 4.12 so I downloaded the latest version 4.16 but it still will not connect. I use ZoneAlarm firewall and have allowed Limewire to both connect to the network and act as a server but it still will not connect. Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks in advance

Scary, huh ?

So... (a little sombre cello here in the background)... er...
What happens if you do a Shutdown... Does it still work OK ?

(Perhaps the JAWS background music should be on during the Shutdown and Start, huh ?)

NO I will not shut LW down I'm afraid I dont want to have the same problem, of having days where I cant connect. I'm the onlyone in the Copm that had this problem. The other Accounts where avail to connect right away after opening LW.
