Good question. Not sure. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.) Most likely step 3 if you only recently started using LW.

That failed test means something is blocking port 6346. Hopefully it's not your ISP & simply a temporary misdemeanor by your connection device.

If after deleting your LW prefs folder there's no improvement, can you please answer the questions here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showpo...91&postcount=2
