Default Transferred Limewire from XP to Vista and doesn't work now

I think this may be a common problem, but I transferred Limewire over from my old computer (XP) to my new Vista with PC Mover and now a firewall blocks it from working. I tried to make Limewire an "exception" but no dice. Any ideas?

THERE IS A QUICK FIX.

Right click on the Limewire Icon on you desktop, click "Properties", go to the tab "Compatibility", check the box, "Run this program in Compatitbility mode for:" and make sure it says "Windows XP (Service Pack 2"

Now open Limewire,

works like a charm.
