Oh thanks... didn't see that I left that in. I'm on a dynamic IP anyways.

The only reason I am using my firewall (NetBarrier) is because I have a blocklist of IPs imported from PeerGuardian. After resetting the router to default settings and monkeying around with Acquisition/Limewire, Limewire no longer detects a firewall (and question #13 is now "no")... but still no luck. I see no attempts at making any sort of connection inside of LimeWire, as if the software is not even trying to connect. So strange.
