Firewall is still there

[shritasmith]

I have windows xp and limewire is an exception in my windows security exceptions and yet the brickwall is still there. I have been trying to access limewire since last Friday. Limewire did download, however, the brick wall is still in front of the globe. What can I do so that I can search for songs etc...

I've tried all the examples that have been posted and still nothing. I still have the brick firewall in front of the globe. It's not connecting to the internet. I don't know what else to do! Please help

I also am experiencing this same problem. Everything was working perfectly about a week ago. I've done everything that you two have already done. If anyone knows how to fix this please advise. Thank you.

The firewall problem disappeared overnight. I hope this has occurred for you as well.

Same here... I"m using Vista an upgraded to Pro two days ago and have yet to connect.
The free version worked just fine a week ago. Made the exceptions and opened the port.
Still "trying to connect" I guess the help is still home sleeping the turkey off...
Also, I was thinking that we might be waiting a while for an answer because the folks that know how to fix the problems don't need to come to this forum, so we're all just kinda sitting here shrugging at each other...

I had the free version before and it worked fine. Upgraded and wouldn't start. Bought PRO and it installed and starts but will not connect. Windows firewall is off, my firewall is off. And I have the wall and "starting to connect". Vista home basic. What's up???

Yours just starting working ok? This sucks!

yeah I have even deleted and reloaded the free version and now it still won't do anything. I downloaded another shareware program and it goes right thru the firewall but I wanna use my limewire.. So maybe we should send up some e-smoke signals for help or something.

[missjenni]

okay wierd as it may sound mine just popped up the box that shows when you first open limewire that shows loading interface and all that and then jumped to turbo charged connection but the firewall is still there... Hope you guys have the same luck!

I just got Limewire, made sure it was on my exceptions list for Windows firewall, and made sure it isn't affected by my other security program, but it still won't connect and has the firewall symbol.. Please help.
