Default upgraded to 3.8.5 and now it won't connect....

OK, I'm running Windows XP on a DSL, I just upgraded to 3.8.5 to get the newer version. Everything was fine before. Now it won't connect, I get the red meter (new to this version) and a 'disconnected'.
Any suggestions? I didn't change a thing but all of a sudden it won't connect any longer.

Default

One more thing....I also now receive this message when launching the program:
"Limewire has encountered an internal error. It is possible for Limewire to recover and continue running normally. To aid with debugging, please click 'Send' to notify Limewire about the problem. If desired, you can click 'Review' to look at the information that will be sent. Thank you."

When I click Review it lists what appear to be problems with java. What could this be? help please!

Default I FIXED IT!

So, I'm not quite sure how I fixed it but here's what I did:
I use McAfee and at some point when installing the updated Limewire I may have denied Java access. I don't know if this affected my connection or not. So...I reinstalled Java version j2re-1_4_2_03-windows-i586-p-iftw. I then uninstalled Limewire and reinstalled the International version, still no connection. I uninstalled and reinstalled the English Only version, CONNECTION!
I'm pretty good at fixing stuff like this if anyone has a question, hope this helps!
