it's windows xp, i have a blue line when i switch on, not sure what service pack that is limewire is 4.9.37 i connect with broadband, from home i've got windows firewall and zonealarm - i went into the windows firewall unfortunately i dont know what a modem router is or how to find that out i looked in my java plug-in icon, dunno if thats what you need, it says standard edition 1.3.1_04, default virtual machine version 1.3.1_04-b02, plug in 1.3.1_04 |

![]() The blue line means you have sp2. Are you running the Zonealarm firewall and XP firewall together? What happens if you turn off your Win firewall?? Your modem/router is just the piece of hardware that lets you connect to the net. Have a look at all your hardware & see if you can find those brand & model numbers, that info might be needed for someone to help you with your prob ![]() |

i cant see any info about my modem on my computer i'm afraid |

![]() Your modem could be a separate piece of hardware that plugs into your comp ![]() Have a look at all the stuff you have. Has LimeWire worked ok in the past? Do this test & see if it works: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ |
