I've just started a new Limewire (4.18.5). The last one worked fine. This one doesn't and shows a Firewall. I've turned off my Windows firewall. Still have AVG antivirus on.
My details are;
Operating sys is Windows XP with 25GB Ram free.
Connection is Broadband through a Belkin54g wireless router.
I connect from my own house with Talktalk as my ISP.
My Limewire edition is 4.18.5 and Java is 1.6.0_01-b06.
I am UPnP enabled but the Brickwall is showing a firewall.
I live in Ireland.
The test site showed "the test worked".
How please do I get my Limewire to work?

I uninstalled Limewire and went with Frostwire.

I still get the firewall detected but now have a turbocharged connection and am back to downloading.

Many thanks FireEater. I have tried getting rid of Limewire but a message keeps popping up saying "unable to delete because another program or person is using "promodb.lck" ". I found that this promodb.lck is a small part of LM but no matter what I do I can't clear the little b**, and I can't find any other program that uses it.
However I'll try again and try using Frostwire.
I'll let you know developments and again many thanks.

Hi everyone,

My limewire started doing this a long time ago. A post in another thread suggested deleting a file and it did it for me.

Go to c/all users/(your name)/limewire and find the file called "gnutella.net" and delete it.

It was that easy for me!
