Limewire is currently connecting
 

1. Win Xp Sp2 Firewall on
2. Zone Alarm
3. 512mb RAM
4. 300gb+
5. Plusnet Broadband
6. Belkin wireless router F5D7632
7. Connecting from home
8. LW v4.12.8
9. Plusnet (UK)
10. "Your test worked" displayed
11. Not sharing connection
12. Happened recently was working last week (have updated java and router software since then)
13. Yes brick wall is shown

LW starts but as soon as I search it says "Limewire is currently connecting" it then doesn't connect. The brick wall would indicate that firewall is blocking access? But it still doesn't connect if I turn off both my firewalls.
I have tried changing listening port and deleting preferences to no avail.

Hi mims
Take a look at this link. Plusnet Block Ports
Also turn XP firewall off.

Peace.

I somehow got it working again.
I reinstalled both Java JRE and LW. I also rebooted my router and lowered security on my firewal and all seems to be fine. No idea why though

Hi
Two Firewalls interfear with each other, Giving u less not more protection.
If Its anything to do with your ISP they may only cramp P2P traffic at peak
hours.
& I was going to sujest java next. Glad its working now.
Peace.
