Is the XP firewall your only software firewall (not a good idea to run 2 together)?
Do you see the firewall icon (brick wall in front of the blue earth)?
Yes, the XP firewall is the only firewall I have, the firewall icon is on.

Connection problems? Check here first!
My modem is a Toshiba PCX2500 cable modem, if you need them I have SN numbers and other numbers I can give you straight off the modem itself.

I just got off the phone with my ISP, they basically told me that Patriot Media closes no ports so limewire should have no problem communicating with my modem. They told me that a customer service rep who use Patriot Media can connect to limewire with no problem and whatever problem is on my end ... this is not the case because I have downloaded stuff from limewire on occasion, and if it were on my end no internet would work.
