Default Comodo not letting me connect

Hey, I recently downloaded Comodo Firewall v3, and Limewire hasn't been connecting. Everything was fine before this.

My green bars are maxed out, but when I try to download a file, it just gets stuck at "Connecting." Then it goes and says the error message in the download status thing, which is "Need more hosts" or something like that. This doesn't affect all files that I try to download, it just affects a lot. Most of the files I try to download get this error and it sucks.

I tried following this guide, but it wasn't updated for V3 of my firewall. Port Forwarding for the Comodo Firewall

Help's appreciated, guys!

1. OS version? Vista home premium
2. What firewalls you have? Windows, Comodo
3. How much ram? 2gb
4. Hard Disk space available? 450gb
5. Connection type? Not sure.. DSL/Cable though, I know that
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Huh?
7. Where are you trying to connect from? House
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? The latest version for each of them, I think. LW- 4.14.10 Java- 1.6.0_03
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? AT&T
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? My test worked.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Well, I'm on a network with my sister, if that's what you mean... She doesnt use LW though.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. This is a problem I've never had before and I been using LW for a long time.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? No, it went away, but it used to be there.
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? UPnP is enabled, I haven't port forwarded the port.
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? AVG anti virus+spyware, Spybot S&d, spyware terminator, and comodo
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). US

Edit: This is ruined my connection for uTorrent as well. :\
