Default Firewall/Connection problems

I recently purchased Norton 360 and I had already had Limewire on my computer. After downloading the Norton, Limewire said it was having connection problems because it was detecting a firewall. So i reinstalled Limewire and that didn't work.
I have gone to the firewall settings and clicked 'Allow' for Limewire's settings, but still it says its detecting a firewall.

2. What firewalls you have? Norton 360 2008

7. Where are you trying to connect from? House
