Ok. I used LimeWire constantly pretty much everywhere on my laptop. I got a new laptop with Vista installed, and all of a sudden, LimeWire wont connect. I had the same anti-virus software (McAfee), and the same firewall (ZoneAlarm) with the exact same settings on both machines and only my laptop with XP worked. My brother connecting to the same router, has no problem getting onto LimeWire. I have read and read about port forwarding and other fixes, and I have port forwarded via firewall and router, and even shut off the firewall completely, and still can't connect. I've also tried Gnutella Lite and Shareaza. Nothing Something tells me its something with vista. Here's my details, please HELP!
