Default firewall problem, please help

I recently purchased a McAfee security program. Before I installed it I had no problems with my Limewire but now it keep detecting a firewall. I have tried turning off the firewall and Limewire still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

I have Window Vista on a DSL connection

Make sure that the Vista firewall's turned off. Try removing your current LW rules from McAfee & then add new ones. The link below has more info about how to configure McAfee for LW
Port Forwarding for the McAfee Security Center
