Error: Lime wire in unable to connect...

[aquariuslove]

I continue to get the message:

Limewire was unable to initialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking Limewire access to the internet or loopback connections to the local machine. Please allow Limewire access to the internet and restart Limewire.

Now I have gone on Limewire and followed the troubleshooting.. didn't work
I went throught the form.. added ports, checked page "You passed the test", uninstalled and reinstalled

It worked for months and one day it stopped.....please help

2. Check the options here (also see post at bottom of page): Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)
