Smile Connection Firewall Problems

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Windows XP SP2
2. What firewalls you have? The known ones are Norton and Windows both turned off
3. How much ram? Unsure
4. Hard Disk space available? 93.1GB
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Unsure
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 4.12.6
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Tiscali
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? Your Test Worked
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Nope
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I am fairly good on computers so i can understand SOME terms
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes i'm assuming its a firewall problem

The two known firewalls Norton and Windows are both off yet it still says firewall is blocking it. Now i know of no more and it ain't been working the last two weeks. Bar once when it went really slow!

Please help!
