Default More Vista Connection Problems

1. OS: Vista Home Premium
2. Firewalls: McAfee (enabled with LimeWire given access and with the port open for it) Windows Firewall (all settings disabled)
3. RAM: 2048 MB
4. HDD Space: ~325 GB
5. Connection: Cable
6: Modem: Motorola Surfboard SB5100
Router: Linksys WRTG54 v. 6.0 (Firmware updated)
7. Connection Location: Home
8. Limewire Version: 4.13.2B
Java Version: 1.6.0 (JRE 6.0 SE)
9. ISP: Adelphia/Time Warner
10. Connection Test: Pass
11. Other P2P: None
12. This problem only occurs on my Vista notebook, LW works perfectly with all versions on both my XP desktops... all are running with at least a gig of RAM and have McAfee installed, but they only have Java 1.5.x
13. Firewall Indicator: Yes, and it remains on when I turn McAfee Firewall off, when I set up port forwarding for LW from both the router and the firewall, and when all three sections of Windows Firewall are off.

I have read all the posts on this, I know it's common, but it seems like everyone manages to fix their problem with running under admin and installing Java. I have tried multiple times to install Java with the offline installer, and it installs correctly. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it. I have updated LW and rolled back and tried everything I can think of. I'm just wondering if I'm missing something.

If I missed anything, please let me know.
