Cannot Connect to the Internet

Hello, I just downloaded and installed the latest version of Bearshare on my PC. Bearshare is working fine. I have no problems connecting and downloading files. The problem I am having is I can no longer connect to the Internet using Internet Explorer or get my e-mail with Microsoft Outlook. This only started happening after I began using Bearshare. Has anyone heard of this happening and how do I fix it?

Thanks,

Dave

i tried to connect many time to network but for some reason i do not get the blue turbo bar. i get red bars. a behind fire wall status. i checked the firewall. added limewirepro to my firewall. ran the test on you webpage and it passed. i have a dsl connection. a 2wire moden. do you have a suggestion?

That's a LimeWire question, Edwin, so try the LimeWire forums.

And smithdbs, try the bandwidth throttle when you want to use other software.
It's the little green slider on the bottom of the bandwidth graph.
