Been trying for days and checked out every relevant thread I can find.
Here's the problem. I can put my folders into limewire but not the files, music, playlists, movies etc they contain as they are dimmed. Also I cannot break the firewall.

I have d/l the adsl router user's guide but do not understand any of the terms re firewall or what items to check or uncheck via the web page. Could it be this? And if so what should be checked or unchecked.
If someone cannot help me I'll just be another freeloader. Would rather not.
