I have pretty much the same problem. it has worked with vista the past year, but all of the sudden it just won't make a connection. i'm in a college dorm and i have the school's firewall and Mcafee anti-virus. could either of these be the problem? and if so why was it not a problem last year because i don't believe anything changed. would appreciate ANY help i can get.

Thanks in advance!

It seems all of a sudden the problem has come up. I dont have any anti V and the windows fire wall is completly disabled.

as a new development the connection is not established but some old pending download is active and its being downloaded very slowly. bt still iam not able to find any results for my searches.

Please help.

Try the fixes in the thread below. If nothing there helps, post back with your system details.
If LW Will Not Connect

Jsrock316,
You should ask the school whether they'll allow you to use p2p. If other people at school can use LW, find out their setup.
