ok i dont know if it will work for everyone but i tried everything that everyone else has said on how to connect and i finally did it this afternoon.

i thought it was my firewall so i deleted it and redownloaded and all of that junk.

but to make it work, i deleted the file " norton security " or something, its really plain and i didnt think that it did anything. but i deleted it completely off of my computer and this icon came up in my taskbar and i clicked it and it said new UnUp (or whatever) programs available and then i tried limewire and it works perfectly.

it also fixed Itunes music store (it wouldnt connect either) and my browser (it would "loose connection" to random web pages)

i hope this helps at least one person.
