Angry Firewall and then no Firewall

I was looking on here for a solution to my firewall problem but didn't understand any of what I read so I let it go. Later I turned my computer back on and tried Limewire again and it worked perfect. No firewall detected or anything. Today I try it again and the firewall is back. I have Vista BTW and I know it has it's issues. So what do I need to do now?

Sounds like a UPnP problem.

You need to use manual port forwarding if UPnP is unreliable. You will find all info needed here: PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall
