Thank you for you response birdy. Much appreciation there.

The "bug report" did report "false".

Here is the thing.....

I have disabled the "firewall" for Windows XP.
I have SBC isp. I have a 2wire router. I went into my 2wire router settings. In there, firewall is "active". I go into settings. It allows me to pick applications which can pass through the firewall. Gnutella is already listed. I "allow" Gnutella to pass.
The settings for Gnutella is already preset. TCP and UDP are already set at 6346. IP address is set as 69.109.251.179. I can not change settings for TCP or UDP.

Is there something I am missing here? Also.. why is it that I was able to download from my other computer?

Smile FIXED THE PROBLEM!!! Brick wall is torn down!!!

Thanks to the help of Birdy and Sleepless!!!

My brick wall is gone and uploading is now possible.

My solution was this:

1) I checked if i was in "false" mode on LM Bug report. And I was.
2) I turned off my windows xp firewall.
3) I changed the settings on my router...
a) I have SBC isp with 2Wire router.
b) Went into isp/router settings using my ip address (xxx.xx.x.x on the search bar)
c) My firewall was "active". I changed the settings to "allow" applications to pass through the firewall. "Gnutella" was already a listed application. I just added it so it can pass through. The settings for "Gnutella" were already preset. I could not change them.
d) I just took the settings it had and changed them on the LW firewall settings.

Wala... brick wall was torn down.

Don't know if this will help anyone, but I hope I gave an idea.
