I have tried all of those things and it still refuses to connect. I don't know if this is significant but I just realized that the Limewire in the start menu is version 4.14.10, but when I open it and go to 'about Limewire' it says the version is 4.16.7. Just a thought.

Disable your windows firewall -- is your nortons firewall configured to allow Limewire.exe permission in/out of your computer if not go to this link (Limewire & Norton Internet Security 2007) scroll down to post #3 by shanah16 and follow insttructions -- also is your router/firewall configured to allow LW access. You should only have 1 version of java so check your add/remove programs

I disabled my windows firewall but with no avail, i did configure my norton firewall but there was no change, I recently discovered that my brothers Limewire also refuses to connect and it is on the same network via a router, Is it possible that that could be the problem? I trie4d downloading frostwire, and for about 5 hours it worked, but now a message comes up saying that a firewall (don't know which one), is blocking my connection attempts, or filtering the gnutella port. What is going on with this?

Ok it could be your router/firewall -- disable this and see if you can connect to LW if so than it is your router/firewall causing the problems -- if you still dont connect to LW -- enable your router/firewall and disable your nortons firewall and try connecting to LW -- let us know how you get on please
