Default Limewire Shuts off internet

Alright my problem is that Limewire shuts off my internet from the router level.. It started about a month ago and i havent used since than. What happens is i get into limewire and it connects and everything but when i start searching and downloading it shuts off my internet about 2 seconds after i start.. Ive reinstalled it and cleared my whole computer of limewire and registarys related to it and still doesnt do anything.. So my question is whats up ive been using limewire for the past 3 years and this is the first time it ever did this... ive done virus scans and spyware scans and come up empty handed so i have no idea wats going on.. and my router should not be blocking it with the firewall since it hasnt ever done it before...

Try the tips here: Reduce the drag caused by LW
To disable ultrapeer capabilities in new versions, tools > options > advanced > performance. While you're there, you could also disable Mojito DHT capabilities & see whether that helps.
