Default Can someone please take over my computer & see what the problem is!!!

First, I have an HP w2207 pavillion/windows vista. I have everything that Limewire needs (Java,etc.) I do have Norton, but I've been to options/program control and have allowed the limewire program. Still showing one red bar & "limewire has detected a firewall" on the bottom left of limewire. When I put artist name search, no results. What is this adding Gnutella connection port?? Is that necessary? I don't know what else to do!! Help! I love limewire ; )

****Can someone do a connect promt & check out my computer?

well u could search on the net - read other posts, etc..

Alas u need to open up a port on ur firewall to allow outgoing or to share files u'll need to allow incoming.

I don't use Windows no more and I don't know very much about Vista, however make sure when choosing a port choose one between the 10k range and 60k range.

Finally the last Alas - i ain't getting really any results either myself on gnutella today even tho I have the ports opened + blocking the bad guys with a blacklist. ie: i use iptables rules of which I still have yet to learn how to add a bluetack.co.uk blacklist to the gtk-gnutella program.
