Do the following in the sequential order given, instructions 1 thru to 5:
1. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)
2. XP firewall configuration: Windows Firewall - LimeWire
3. Very first thing you must do when port forwarding is to set up a static ip. If you didn't, your port forwarding won't work once your dynamic ip changes. Thus those port forward rules should be removed & re-done. First set up a static ip: Setting up Static ip for Windows XP
4. Then follow the port forwarding process of setting up the rules in your D-Link: Port Forwarding for the D-Link WBR-1310
