Unhappy I Cant Live Without My Music!! Please Help Me!!

I Recently Downloaded The New Version Of Limewire (The Free One) And I Click On The Icon When The Download Was Complete And The Message I Got Then And Everytime Ever Since Was: "Limewire was unable to initializie and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking limewires access to the internet or loopback connections on the local machine. Please allow limewire access to the internet and restart limewire"... Ive read other peoples post and the did everything the replies said to do and i still cant get my limewire to work... PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Do you have Windows XP SP2??? If so, you should be able to change the settings in that to accept downloads. If not, then you do have a firewall blocking and I really dont know howelse or whatelse you can do except to try and change ports to adjust your firewall setting to match limewire's.
