Unhappy Tiger & Connection problems

I used Limewire with 10.2 no problems, then I upgraded to Tiger, and now Limewire can't connect. It starts fine, but then it just says 'connecting' in red letters in the bottom left corner, and never gets connected, before saying I don't have a connection, or I am being blocked by a firewall. Meanwhile Firefox and Entourage working fine.

I tried three things: first i reinstalled Limewire.
Second I checked out the connection issues pointed out on the Limewire website. It advised adding the Limewire/Gnutella port to the Firewall listings. The instructions were vague - it implied this was only an issue for 10.3.9 - but I tried it anyway. It also implied that i did not need to put in the port number, but i did this as well.
Third, I deleted my preferences file.
But the problem remains.

I am using Tiger on a G3 IBook, connecting thru wireless internet.

Hope you can help!
