Sure,
1. My OS is Windows XP
2. I have the XP installed firewall
3. 512 MB Ram
4. 160GB Hard Disk space plus another 160GB external Hard Drive
5. Dialup Connection
6. Sorry I have no idea about my modem
7. I connect from my home
8. I have 4.10.9 PRO Limewire and 1.5.0_04 JAVA
9. I use AOL 9.0 Optimized SE
10. I am not currently sharing connection with other computers
11. I have had Limewire for over a year now and this problem has just started rather recently and seemingly out of nowhere
12. I followed the link and it was a blank page with "Your Test Worked" in the upper right corner.
13. My graphic card I'm not sure about...that might be my NVIDIA GEFORCE MX graphics?

I really appreciate your help and assistance with my problem and I'm really hoping it will get resolved. Another question though, are there any other reports of this problem? Just wondering.

Okay, since you're using an older version of Java (the newest is 1.5.0_07), I'd reckon first to uninstall your Java, download the newest version (use the JRE offline installer) and install that.

Since you do not know about your modem/ router or whatever you use, where do you plug in the jack of the phoneline?? At the back of your computer or is there some box outside the computer?
Do you have any AOL security software installed ( or any other Antivirus/ AntiSpyware program)??

An advice in regard to your graphic card, try to update the driver. Or try setting your graphic card settings back to default. Some had an issue with 3D settings for games. And others had an issue with graphic card driver updates that had problems.

You're using the LW 4.10.9 Pro, are you still in the 6 month period for free updates or have 6 months already passed since you bought LW. I assume you bought it from the official LW website?!?
