Some routers have an inbuilt firewall
Please post back here with the brand or type of router you are using to access the internet.
Please read the "Sticky" files at the beginning of each of these forum categories
Sometimes there is an answer for your problem listed among them.

Hands up those who read the forum rules before posting in this thread? If you posted these details in first place, you'd save us all a lot of time.

For one... if you dont want to help then dont. I personally did look through the forum and under help using limewire and NO IT DIDNT HELP. You obviously arent the one having a problem so if you arent asking for help or providing it dont waste this space with your immature behavior.

And you say waste your time....How? you decided to write back WITHOUT an answer and you decided to read it. A couple of us who were asking for help WAS helped by some great Lime Wire users. Thank you!

Oh sweetie, I am the administrator of this little forum here. You were shown the forum rules when you registered, again when you were given a reminder about posting. So ... what are you trying to pretend. You were asked in forum rules, and again by me to provide system details. We can't help you without them. Sorry but we do not have ESP. duh Gnutella Forums - Announcements in Forum : Open Discussion topics
Now let's turn the mirror around and look at yourself. You ignored reading the forum rules twice, and failed to provide system details even when requested. See the link in my previous post. OMG. Nobody here can help you without those details .. that is a fact.

Now you have waisted my time, and yours. Nothing is better now is it. If you had have done as requested which was very simple then we'd be on our way. MUG'd for being a little attention seeker & flamer.
