need help connecting
 

I have not been able to connect to limewire since last week. I haven't done any downloads or updates so i don't understand what happened. I can only get 1 bar and then sometimes I wll get a pop up message saying that i do not have an active internet connection or a firewall is blocking limewire. I have tried turning off my firewall protection and that worked for the first couple times but it doesn't help anymore. I have tried everything listed on these posts and nothing works. Last night I tried downloading kazaa to see if that would work and that doesn't either. Please help, thanks.
