4. Hard Disk space available? 500K
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from? house
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? Limewire 4.16.6 and latest Java
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Rogers cable (canada)
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ says'Your test worked!'....
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem as soon as I went to vista
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? _ YES!!!!
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled?
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? adaware / zone alarm / spybot
16. What country are you living in? Canada
So no other LW versions running on other computers?
Go to LW's menu bar, Tools > Options > Advanced > Performance, and disable Ultrapeer and DHT and TLS. Then press apply. Then connect manually. If it connects, then can re-enable those performance options.
To connect manually, click on File > disconnect. Wait 5 minutes, then File > connect. Else, first go to Tools > Options > Connections and disable connect on start up. Then try the File > Connect option.

Since everybody's system is a little different, so the answers to their problems may be different.
