I noticed after shutting LW down and then restarting that it said no firewall detected which is odd because my router is Firewalled. When I shut down and restarted multiple other times it always showed the firewall icon the Unpd was doing its job and getting around it good connections leaf mode only good UL & DL. I have not noticed any diffrence in preforemce only that no firewall detected did it possibly disable my firewall ??. If you happen to notice the snapshot in my earlier post I was not conecting through the router when that snapshot was taken

Later Grandpa

After further Investigation the firewall on my router had been disabled. Had to reset router LimeWire now showes Firewall Icon. I do not know if LW somehow rest my settings or what happend but I saw a post earlier where someone had a simular problem might be somthing that needs to be looked into. Let me know if I can help.
