I have also checked that my ADSL modem doesnt act as a firewall or router.... I have seriously no clue whats wrong... All I know is that I cant connect to gnutella with limewire ( or any other gnutella clients) becouse my ports are posing as stealth ( they dont accept or reject) they just dont answer.
I have now uninstalled northon internet security, and i have checked acouple of hundred times now that the win xp pro firewall is off!
What can possibly be wrong?
