Hi ya, I am new to this forum and have read all previous threads and have even tried to sort the problem myself by putting in the listen port numbers etc in manually, Limewire was working a couple of days ago but I haven't been on it until today and for some reason I cannot get a connection 1 bar continuously! It is driving me mad trying to get my head around this and am beginning to lose all patience! I appreiciate the fact that you have lots of people asking the same thing and I praise you in your efforts but if you could help me with this I would be ever so grateful, All the information I believe you need is below and if there is anything else you need to know just shout!

Thanks again
