I was wondering if someone could help me out. With the last few versions of LW, I have noticed that hardly anyone connects to me anymore to share files. I was never king of the hill, but always had a steady stream of people sharring some of my files. I have not changed any of my settings nor added any new firewall type stuff. Currently I use Norton Internet Security......I'm just confused as to why I hardly ever see anyone sharring any of my files anymore.......

Do you see the firewall icon (brick wall)?
In LW go tools > options > bug reports > view example. Scroll down to 'recieved incoming this session'. Is it true or false? If it's true then you can accept incoming connections & there's no drama. If it's false, there's a firewall somewhere which is causing a problem... very few (if any) people will be able to download from you.

The thread below has lots of info about firewall issues & their fixes
