I keep getting the message saying something about looping back and that my firewall must allow Gnutella. but when i need to import the internal and external ports i cannot find them out because to do so i need to get into limewire. BUT limewire won't open

im very confused i just need to figure out the ports and i seem to be going in circles please help

If you mean the "firewall or loopback connections" message, have a look here

Follow LOTR's advice & see how you go:)

what i am trying to say is that i followed the limewires help site but there is a instruction that says
Within LimeWire, go to: Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Firewall Config
Make a note of the Listening Port located in the box next to "Listen on Port"

but the problem is that i cant get into limewire!

Try deleting the LW preferences & reinstall Java with the offline installer. Instructions here
