I am having a real problem connecting to the Gnutella Network (Limewire), through Vista. It use to work fine on XP but no longer on Vista. I have the latest Vista Updates & Java 6.0 + my Firewalls have given Limewaire complete access to no avail.

Please help me.

I have tried that but still have no joy.

It's saying there's a Firewall in Limewire but I have either turned Firewalls off, or allowed access to this Program.
