Hi

LimeWire does not work on my college network, they only allow http (via a web browser) but kazaa sometimes works on port 1214.

But I want limewire to work, any ideas?

Your school network probably filters Gnutella traffic.

no its not like that, are there any ports that I can use or will the HTTP 8080 port work? since Internet Explorer works fine.
