Hi Guys, Sorry that I have not been here during all the excitment, my sister dragged me out, she was buying a new car...
Anyway Im a little confused with it all lol...
LW is opening fine now and all my files are shared again, but the firewall is still there, now I still have all the instructions from when I port Forwarded awhile back do I do this again or is there an easier way...

I dont mind if you use this thread to help others....
Cheers

It should just be a simple matter of turning port forward on in the LW settings. That's how it was for me. You shouldn't need to port forward again. You might need to re-open LW however after making such a change! I can't remember. At least try using the Apply button to see if it takes immediate effect.

You just need to remember which port # you have set up for limewire then enter it into limewire port forward settings.

It really didn't matter which version you used they both said basically the same thing.
