Default LW problem!!! (can't connect on one user account)

Hi, i have LW installed since 2 years and one week ago i started having problems with it. I canīt connect it and only 1 litlle bar appears in green and it is detecting a firewall that doesnīt allow to connect but it only happens in my profile, i mean, i have 5 profiles in my PC for the rest of my family and iam the administrator of this PC and they can connect it without problems and i cannot. Please help me!!

I have Windows XP
I have windows firewall (i already checked the exception created and it already exists
I have Panda antivirus

I already desinstalled LW and installed it again but nothing happens

Thank you!

I tried to disconnect it and re-connect it after 5 minutes but nothing!

I disabled the auto-connect on start up stuff to make it manually but nothing!

then i removed the gnutella.net file and installed it again and DONE!!!

as simple as that.

I have to connect it manually cuz i left it like this and it is not having problem at all!!

Hope it helps in the future to other LW user!

THX again!!!
