http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?t=68763

It worked last year, but it doesnt now and
Limewire is not blocked in McAfee, and Windows Firewall is disabled.

I have tried using different ports but it doesn't seem to work either.

Just A note- Torrents don't work as well.

Please help me!
Thanks

Thanks Grandpa

I have not uninstalled it yet, but is it ok if I uninstall it?
I have no other security program, and I just don't want any viruses and stuff...

Thanks

Unfortunatley your ISP shapes p2p, so that's more than likely where your problem lays...
