Angry Connection prob of course

I don't know what else to do. It won't connect. I have no norton or program like that and I let limewire go through my windows firewall. Still says it detects one firewall. I checked the dsl modem and the firewall is not on and my ISP does not block the network. What else can I try??? Thanks

What brand & model number of dsl modem do you have? It's my guess UPnP isn't enabled or else it doesn't support UPnP. In which case you may need to manually port forward.

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
11. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
12. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?
