Default College Dorm Firewalled Or??!!

Hello all,
I am in my college dorm apartments and when I started Limewire, I do not get a connection forever.....I look at the status at the bottom and it keep saying "Starting Connection" and there is an icon firewalled. Is there a way to connect this thing up? I am using the apartment's DSL connection.

In our experiences on this forum, we get a lot of dorm users with similar problems. Unfortunately you probably have little control over the connection device & firewalls, & what's more, they may even shape or block p2p programs. You can have a look at Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)
