ok I'm confused. Where is "Connection Problems" you told me to go to? I have no idea how to configure the firewall or whatever it is. You will have to go through this step-by-step as I have no clue about firewalls except it protects your computer from being hacked.

I have a DELL, Windows XP Home Edition 2002, Service Pack 2
My ISP is Cox and I have a D-Link Air DWL -520 Wireless PCI Adapter (Rev. D)
I have my windows updates installed
LW 4.10.9
Java 1.5.0_06
DSL or broadband connection
Connecting from home
Computer in other room is sharing connection with this computer
I've used Limewire for a year so it's not the first time. I did reinstall my system few weeks ago so that must be where the problem started.

After doing the system reinstall, I think I protected my computer more than I used to. I used to have SP1 and now I have SP2 and I am installing the automatic windows updates more often now. Maybe before the system reinstall, the firewall was not installed properly so my computer wasn't as protected. I hope that Limewire can work with SP2 and windows updates.
