I basically followed all steps you have indicated - it seems that after reinstalling the Java, I've got a connection back.
However going to Advance tools > connections > it sill says that " you are behind a firewall and support firewall transfer.
I've checked windonws firewall and limewire is marked as exception
Do I have to do something else?

Good to hear.

After you reboot your computer next time, see if it has same problem.
Make sure only one firewall is active.
If still the firewall issue, please supply details of modem/router brand name & model number as this might be the issue.
