You should also be able to make an exeption in PC-Cillan for Limewire...
You need to allow incomming and outgoing traffic...
This link is for both, just click on them and scroll down and select Limewire...
PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall

Thanks wondering why I did that and it worked - router setup as follows under the "virtual server" section (which is basically a "hole in the firewall" section):

Name = Limewire.4
Private IP = ***.***.*.*
Protocol Type = Both
Private Port = 32949
Public Port = 32949
Schedule = Always

I don't understand why my DMZ didn't work, as that is supposed to open all ports and directly connect ***.***.*.* to the internet - no holes barred. (At least that's my understanding).

Anyway - thanks again.
