I tried everything that was suggested and I still get the same message "Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected to the network." I only have one Firewall which is Windows and it was off all the time. I tried changing the listening port in LW but that didn't help. And LW was working fine until recently (I'm not sure when the problem started). Please help!
