Ok, so I have Limewire basic, and a windows firewall (disabled), and I am running on a server offered through a school system. My mother is the system admin, so I know that this connection has rights of access to the needed IP that has no extra firewall protection. Once again, my windows firewall is disabled, yet LW seems to be behind a firewall...I just downloaded Firefox, could this be the reason for all the unhappiness, or is LW just having an off day?
