Default Firewalls

Are you people using firewalls?

Try it with them turned off or properly configured. Allow LimeWire.exe and java to pass through the firewall in both directions.

For help with firewalls, make sure you read this:
http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml

We are working on a step by step document for specific firewalls. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Oh! GWB! well . . . OK then.

But ... but... you didn't say that Macs don't need anywhere near the firewall protections Windows does. More Mac marginalization!
