Exclamation A Huge Update!!!

Alright guys I called Verizon and the man began a screen sharing session between our computers in which he can see and control my screen...so cool.

Anyway he wanted to see the error message displayed by Limewire, and I told him it will probably disconnect our session but what the hell?

I opened Limewire and of course it robbed my internet and said communication session timed out! Mean while the asian man is on the other side going quote "What did you do to my computer!!!"

He was kidding of course but I did indeed freeze his computer...good stuff...

But after all of that he said everything was working fine, Verizon does not block P2P programs, and that my internet connection has nothing to do with my problem as it is perfectly fine.

He said that he couldn't help me anymore and that port fowarding and anything of the sort could not resolve the problem. That's great cuz port fowarding is a pain in the ***!!

Anyway he told me to call up Macafee and ask them some questions about my problem to see if the problem is the firewall(I just can't make up my mind can I?)

After all the message displayed by Limewire did say that if it wasn't my internet connection that it had to be a firewall and that leaves nothing but the Macafee firewall to blame...windows firewall is a good boy...or is it?

Hope this info helps...I'm going to call Macafee once I can find the blasted number!

Meanwhile does anyone have any sugestions...I already uninstalled my Macafee firewall and everything...
