Default Phantom Firewall???

Does limewire detect firewalls that aren't there???

I have windows firewall turned off on my computer and that is the only firewall installed on my computer...

Windows security center reports I have no Firewalls on..

I have a linksys wrt54g wireless broadband router and I am sure I have the firewall disabled I go to firewall settings for router and uncheck the items listed, that is the only way I can see how to disable the firewall...

If that is the wrong way could someone enlighten me???..

But limewire is still detecting a firewall with a brick wall in front of the globe...

Bug Report Incoming session always shows false..

When limewire is telling me it has detected a firewall, is it telling me I actually have a firewall on???....

Because for the life of me I can't find one, I've tried everything for weeks now...

If there is a brick wall there, shouldnt it prevent me from downloading at all or would it affect the speeds of my downloads and uploads???...

I can download and upload and have no problems connecting...

My ISP tells me there is no firewall in my ZYXEL DSL 660 Modem (3.0M/512kb)
Sprint is my ISP...I have no software firewall from my isp installed on my computer...

That only leaves my router and windows firewall...

Sorry so long winded but I have been researching this for weeks now and am at my last gasps...

Is there a way of finding out what firewall limewire is detecting...

Thanx for your response...
