Exclamation Need Help Detecting What Blocking Limewire From Running.!.

I keep getting this message : "Limewire was unable to intialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking Limewire's access to the internet or loopback connections on the local machine. Please allow Limewire access to the internet and restart Limewire." I was woundering if there was a way to tell what program is blocking LimeWire from running?? cause i have no firewalls and my wireless connection can access LimeWire.. I Need Help ASAP.!.

AFAIK "All" wireless devices have internal firewalls. Generally NAT firewalls. What you need to do is set your device's UPnP to enabled. If it doesn't support UPnP then port forwarding is the way to go. See more info here Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)
