Ever since I got highspeed internet with comcast (I used to have dial up) my firewall has been making it difficult for me to log onto limewire. I went into my security program (zone alarm) and made an exception for limewire, which worked. Ever since then, I can get on just fine sometimes, but usually, I have to go adjust my zone alarm every time again - block limewire, then unblock it again. I've even deleted limewire and uploaded the new version. I made sure my zone alarm wasn't blocking it. I adjusted my listening port to 65000, like someone on here suggested. It's still not working! I've been using limewire for a couple years, and I've never had connection/firewall problems before... Anyone else gone through what I'm going through or have any tips?

Just a thought...
but what about temporarily un-installing your Firewall and see if that makes a difference. |

My firewall is a part of my security program, so I would have to uninstall that whole thing. I suppose I could try that though. Thanks
