I'm glad to join to LM community. I'm from Mexico city. I had the same problem by using v4.17 past yesterday (June 24) and I decided to download the new v4.18: same result .. nothing. I could not go in to Limewire (bars al time in red color and the globe with the brick wall means firewall is activated). I always worked with the globe an wall in that condition but now the bar never go out from red. I checked the LM setting and were ok (I guess) and also my Norton (by checking Exclusions) but ..... I don't know what's going on. It's funny 'cause if I go connections it seems is working. I think the problem is LM is not able to share the folder.
Regards

Now I can only get one bar in the bottom left corner and there doesn't appear to be any upload/download data exchange. No connection in essence. I'm not sure what to do. I've checked everything I know to make sure no programs are interfering, including the firewall.

Can I go back to the previous version when life with Limewire was good?

Thanks a bunch,

Robert
