Hey, I've been having problems with connecting. I installed Limewire Pro about a week ago and it's still not connected. It used to come up with a message saying 'you have no internet connection' and 'limewire may be behind a firewall'. But I'm connected and I have allowed Limewire to access the network. I'm my isp provider may be blocking it However, two days ago I got a full turbo connection for an hour or so. But after that it still says 'starting connection' but no message comes up about the firewall or anything. I'm confused. HELP!
