i'm running windows xp with service pack 2
LW version 4.10.9 java version 5.0 update 6
Firewall I'm using Windows firewall that came with my windows xp
my ISP is a local company yucca communications
Connection type is dial up 56.k
i'm connected at my house
no i'm not sharing a connection with other computers
this is not my first time using Limewire
also when it does happen to connect for a few minutes at a time after hours of waiting the firewall disappears from in front of the earth but if i close limewire and reopen it the firewall emblem reappers. i have done the connecting through the windows firewall before but it didnt do anything
