I have even gone as far as doing port forwarding on my router as well. I have a windows XP computer on the same router that works fine with limewire and is running McAfee as well. I have also put it in windows xp sp2 compat, and it doesnt work. upnp is enabled, I have done just about everything I can do on my end other than delete my firewall. Disabling the firewall temporarily did not work. Running Windows Vista Home Premium with SP1. There is NO McAfee REDIRECT listed in services on this computer to disable.
Hello tempestrogue,

There are no known issues regarding McAfee 2008 (Security 8.x) and LimeWire, on Windows Vista. The issue described in this thread concernes McAfee 2007.

The 2008 version does indeed not have the McAfee Redirector service.
