Hello everyone.
I am new to the forum and I cannot figure out to make limewire work. It says I am not connected to the internet and I really am. I have tried my IP address and different port numbers. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! It also says that I am a leaf node and am behind a firewall that doesn't allow firewall transfers and I added limewire as an exception to my firewall. I am so confused!
I have an HP pavilion and am connected to wireless internet.

Depending on which version of LW you're using, try the fixes in either of these threads.
If LW 4 Will Not Connect

If LW 5 Will Not Connect

And if nothing there helps, please post back with your system details. Those help threads have info about which details we need.

"Many third-party security programs block LimeWire from launching or connecting either by restricting access to the port that LimeWire uses to connect to the Gnutella network (i.e. - a firewall), the program itself, or a combination of the two. These programs may have been installed on your computer before you purchased it."---
