Hi Sazzy,
To disable windows firewall,
From your desktop click on "Start", then click on "Control Panel",a new window will open then click "Security Center", then the Security Center window will open, at the bottom it will have an icon that says "Windows Firewall" click on it, another window will open, under the "General" tab there is an option to turn "Off" windows firewall, It says it,s "not recommended" but it's ok if you have "Norton Firewall" running. Tick where it says "Off" then click "OK". Then you can close out the other windows and thats it.
Then try running limewire and see if it connects. Give it adout 15 minutes to get fully connected.
Hope this helps.
