Default starting up the connection to limewire

when i get started an error pops up and says "Limewire was unable to set up a port to listen for incoming connections. Some features of limewire may not work as expected." It does not tell me what else I need to do. I am not very computer literate, so any help is appreciated. Thanks

Try changing ports. In LW tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Change LW's listening port to 64049 (or something in the range of 49152 - 65535) > apply > ok.

We'll need your details: System details - help us to help you -> Provide these details when you post!!!
