Thumbs down Connection comes and goes
OK, running LimeWire 9.9.33, Java 1.5.0_02

I open LimeWire, it connects, slowly. Connection flickers between poor, fair, and good. Occasionally up to excellent. But then disconnects. Again, reattempts connection, works 50% of the time, usually connects second time. Then, again, disconnects within a minute.

1) Windows XP Home SP1
2) Norton Internet Security, Firewall disabled. XP firewall, disabled.
3) 256k RAM
4) Only about 2.5Gb Hard Disk space left (of 20Gb)
5) Connection is corded, through an ADSL Modem, Router, and Firewall (TRENDnet). Firewall disabled.
6) Home connection (North East England)
7) ISP, Talktalk broadband.
8) No other P2P connections, no other computers connected
9) Did this test: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ it said, "your test worked".
10) Did this test: http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
