lol limewire doesn't have spywares since 3.9.x betas... You'll have to do port forwarding on your router on port 6346 to your computer lan address. www.portforward.com If you can't connect with LW, you won't be able with Gnucleus. Do you have installed WinXP SP2?

I have SP2 for XP. I figured that I would have to have 6346 forwarded once you mentioned the router. I forgot about the router seeing that my puter is actually at my gurlfriends house. Her brother manages the router. Now I have to explain to him what I need done. He wont let me touch his computer for some strange reason so I hope he gets it right. Limewire doesnt have spyware? Maybe I'm thinking of bearshare. I can get websites to load in the browser window but it takes a while for them to load. I'm willing to bet that the reason it takes the sites so long to load is the reason why my connections are timingout.
