PLEASE HELP ME

Try the tips here: If LW Will Not Connect (click on the blue link)

Only one firewall should be enabled, so choose between McAfee & Windows Vista firewall & disable the other one. Configure instructions here User Cant Connect - LimeWire :) McAfee security may include a firewall, sometimes only security programs such as anti-spyware, etc.

I've changed the setting to allow limewire to run through the vista one but it still does not work. I also did the link to align the McAfee firewall to allow limewire to run. HELP!

Which linksys model modem/router are you using?
