Running two or more firewall programs at the same time can cause a conflict which can result in slow computer performance,
error messages, or other types of failure. Disable your windows firewall

In Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes -- Try one fix at a time --- do them in this order:-
1. Check your firewall. (vista_mcafee settings)
2. Delete/Replace gnutella.net file
3. Delete Preference Folder (otherwise known as the Limewire folder)
4. Update java
5. Change listening port
6. Go through the rest of the fixes.

Pse note: your modem/router will have a firewall also which has to be configured to allow Limewire full access to your computer
