hi im using vista home premium and i can't seem to conncet to limewire 4.12 - only a bar comes out but no connection whatsoever.

My laptop specs - intel core duo 2300 1gb ddr2 ram intel graphics 950

Ive tried the following:

(all at once)
turned off windows firewall
turned off avast - my anti virus software
turned of windows defender

..still no connection

I also use a D-link 524 wireless router so i tried opening a port but still no connection.

I have the latest updates of JAVA and Vista.

limewire used to work with xp and my current antivirus its just when i upgraded to vita issues with connections started.
