I'm using a client PC in a LAN Network with ISA Server and the network administrator has disabled LW cuz he got many complains on internet connection slow down since I've start using LW. He says that LW and other P2P software use http port and so he disable the Limewire itself as ISA Server prevents others from browsing the internet if he disabled the http port. He also says that if LW uses ports other than http port he can arrange the time so that he could open LW port from 12 a.m. to 10a.m. but it's not possible to automatically arrange the time at those hours if he disabled the LW software itself, but the LW port.
Do you think it is possible to configure ISA Server to allow LW to connect at those times, from 12a.m. to 10a.m. using either port or any other third party software?
LW only uses the HTTP port???

LimeWire doesn't use port 80, which is the HTTP port.

Which port does it use then?

6347 for multicast, 6346 by default for listening to TCP & UDP, and it makes connections to whatever port another client is listening on, which could be 6346 or anything else. Chances of it being 80, though, are almost non-existant.

Tnx for yr post...

Did u meant to say that the port LW uses mainly depends on the PC from which I'm downloading a shared software?

And in addition did u take into account that I'm a client of a Local Area Network of which the backbone internet connection is DSL?

Hi Buddies, I m new membr of this forum , Just solve th problem what I aske about Lme wire behind the ISA srver.

Well unless you are the network administrator, there is no solution. ISA firewall isn't possible to bypass without the administrators permission... or mistake.

I m the administrator of the network, kindly telll me solution

just open the port in the firewall that limewire listens on. You will find that in limewire's options.

Pretty much if you are the admin, you know more than me about how to open a port in the firewall. I have never seen the interface for an ISA server.
