Open up your firewall and it should say add programs so trust list or something similar to that. Click that then click brows. Then select your lime wire folder. once you do that your fire wall should let limewire work. It worked for me!! If it doesn't work for you u can contact me at [email protected]

Go into your windows security centre and switch it off. It takes a while for Limewire to work though once you have turned it off.

Well on there are two ways to do it on open the control panel and click windows firewalls and deactivate the firewall completely or two instead of deactivating the fire wall click advanced options and go exceptions and find limewire on the list. But i must worn you limewire is first of all illegal and secondly there’s a reason firewalls block it, it is full of spyware that will let hackers steal you person details, it is also full of weird viruses.
