firewall issues

Ok, I keep getting the message that my firewall is blocking Limewire from accessing the network. I have Windows Firewall. I went into the advanced settings and made two services. One in TCP external port and the other in UDP external port. I used the port number 6346 and the IP address 127.0.0.1 My firewall is still blocking me, apparently. Even if I turn the damn thing off, I still get the error message. Now I did notice that after I set the IP address and click ok, when I go back and check it the IP address is no longer there, it is replaced with my name. I don't know if that is a issue or not. I AM REALLY FRUSTRATED, I BOUGHT PRO AND NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK. HELP.
