Limewire must be having a problem because I can not connect either and I've uninstalled and reinstalled and have disabled the firewall

ilovemyheckler & cindyh,

Check out this thread for heaps of different fixes to try: If LW Will Not Connect

Start off by deleting LW's preferences folder. Next to try is deleting/replacing gnutella.net file. Otherwise, go through the rest of the fixes.

If nothing helps & you're still stuck, please post back with your system details - that help thread has info about which details we need
