Edit: Sky Broadband? I am aware many UK ISP's are not friendly to p2p file sharing. Not sure about this ISP.

LimeWire is unable to connect to the internet. It's likely that you need to update your security software to allow LimeWire to access the internet. Please see User Cant Connect - LimeWire for more information.
...does anyone know what this message means. My anti-virus program is not blocking Limewire, and I've been using Limewire for years, and all of a sudden i am getting this message, and am not able to go any further. Any assistance would be greatly appriciated!
Thanks!!

Have you updated any software recently or the system perhaps?
Or changed internet equipment, etc.
