Default Firewall & Anti virus setup for CA Interne Security Suite 2007

Hello I'm new here, I just downloaded and installed Limewire (version 5.5.6). I was wondering how do I configure my antivirus and firewall to work with limewire. I am running Windows XP, with 512 MB of RAM. I have CA Interne Security Suite 2007 (product version: 3.2.19, CA Anti virus version: 8.4.0.28, CA Personal Firewall version: 9.1.0.38. Could some please help me to set up my anti virus and firewall to protect my pc? Thank you.

1. Make sure only one firewall is active. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...-firewall.html When making an exception for LW you can also add sub-rules for both TCP & UDP with port ranges above 1000 upward to 65535. Depends on firewall as to whether giving for program alone gives full tcp & udp exception also.

2. Be wary of CA's spyware utility! Make an exception for LW. Otherwise it will damage the LW program. It is anti-p2p software, not that LW has any spyware.

In the "Advanced Tools", it still says "You are not behind a firewall", and CA Personal Firewall is enabled. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. Does that mean my computer is not protected? If so, how do I set up my firewall protection for limewire?
