Exclamation Firewall detection bug

On a Windows XP box with Sygate Personal Firewall. Sygate has been told to let all Limewire traffic by unimpeded. Limewire has been told there's no proxy and no firewall. Beta 4.9.3 added the firewall detection thing in the status line. Beta 4.9.4 promptly broke it -- sometimes it shows "Limewire has detected a firewall" even though that's impossible on my setup. Sygate is configured to be transparent to Limewire, and Limewire has been told not to try to detect a firewall. How can this be happening?

The oddest thing is that despite incorrect firewall detection it actually seems to be downloading things and functioning OK.
