i totally deleted "spyware terminator; deactivated my AVG virus prog; then reinstalled Limewire. then reactivated AVG....It now takes about 5 mins or so to get my 5 bars on limewire, but it does work. (I'm on time warner cable west coast)...Turning off XP's firewall wasn't necessary (but you can turn it off thru 1-start; 2 settings; 3 control panel; 4 windows firewall) Good luck
