Default Enabling Open Information Sharing

In the title bar for Limewire it is constantly "LimeWire: Enable Open Information Sharing". My searches and downloads are fine though. I have searched the forums but anyone that mentions it can't connect.

Anyway i'm using Beta 4.1.1 Pro

Many thanks

Now when I open Limewire I get the stuck with the following message:

Limewire: Enabling Open Information Sharing and it gets stuck there.

I am using Windows/XP SP", Limewire version 4.12.6 and have no firewall blocking Limewire, and McAfee is configurd to allow Limewire.
