I think Bill Gates is buying up all the P2P networks, has any body noticed that copyrights are policed more and more by the likes of the Billy Gates's in the world.
But by wanting to police his own software he leaves doors open for hackers to plant viruses!
It's his Achilles heal.
DO NOT close your Firewall unless you want viruses and data information gathering software installed from a foreign site, this will slow your PC to a crawl.

Two suggestions.
1. Temporarily close the firewall and see if that fixes the problem. If not, it's Limewire and not your firewall.
2. Don't ask in cars and transportation if you want an answer.

You shouldn't have Limewire in the first place. That is, unless you want viruses and getting hacked by god knows who, and allowing people to see your personal information such as your IP and possibly more.
Even if you think you're being 'careful' and 'aware' of what you're downloading there is still a high chance of that happening to you.
So unless you want that then all I have to say is good luck.
