OK, done, but since I was able to both Dl and UL before, why did I want to do this? Isn't my computer more susceptible to be hijacked now? Isn't this less safe than before?

Not at all, I find it hard to believe that anyone could of connected to you whilst behind the firewall....You should also start seeing better results...

Weird then because my speed is slower now. I just finished wiping 4.12.11 and gotthe newest beta installed with the hostiles list. It's nice that it somehow kept all of my old settings and even continued the DL's I had going. But my speeds are much slower still. Why?

Also, with the new version I tried to block a certain files host and mark it as junk, but I no option to mark it as junk and got "block Hosts". Is that because it showed 11 sources for the item? I assume I should not hit block hosts at this point, correct?

I don't get it. Could the Limewire working have anything to do with the fact that I had already done the exact same thing, using the exact same site you sent me to, for Bearshare? Although, I used different ports.

Question... We are four seperate people, using four cmputers that get there internet through a DSL connection, split by a router. Did doing what I just did somehow make there computers faster but my Limewire slower? Also, did I put them in any more jeopardy by doing this?

Now I am reading that opening that firewall, getting the brick wall down, is dangerous. I am not direct connecting with anyone right now, so can I go to my router and disable that special limewire account I created?

As I stated before I was able to use LW fine before, just had some problems with the browse host coming up blank most of the time. I'd rather be safe than sorry. What is your advice?
