Unhappy What Firewall?

Help! I can't get my limewire to download, I've been trying different things for months, I don't know of any firewalls on my computer, I have a router but I disabled the routers firewall. Below are my details. What else can I do? Thank you.

Platform: Windows Vista
Version: Limewire 4.14.12
Connection: Cable
Problem: Firewall image (Globe w/ Bricks)
Additional Info: Belkin Router - Disabled Firewall Settings inside router settings already.

P.s: Sorry, I didn't know whether to put this under Vista or Connection so I just guessed!

Belkin devices tend to be unreliable for use as UPnP mode. They are best port forwarded, at least with LW.

Did you set the VISTA firewall to give LW an exception thru it? User Cant Connect - LimeWire

Question No Luck

So I disabled the Firewall through vista, it still shows a firewall, when I try to search, it says still connecting, I have 1 green bar, the rest red. And I have no idea how to do the port forwarding thing for my router? Any more advice please? Thank you.

Unhappy Ut Oh

So I uninstalled, deleted the extra files, etc, etc, downloaded the newest LW, installed it and now when its loading, it basically hangs at Loading Internationalization Support. Never finishes loading. Help!
