Additional info, added Sunday January 29 2006, 5:04 pm:
i downloaded limewire, but everytime i click on it to start it, it says i have to change my firewall

and on AIM, it says that the AIM service cant be reached.. and it doesnt have anything to do with my internet connection because i can get on the web...

what kind of firewall?
windows firewall-
double click on the lil computer sign on the botttom left hand corner of the screen.
then click properties.
then click on the advanced tab
then firewall settings.
then go to exceptions and click the box next to limewire.
this should allow limewire to work.

Other firewalls should have the same basic idea.
just go to fire wall settings-exceptions and then check limewire.

hope i helped

if you have aol, go to the top of your toolbar hit settings, scroll to the f's then hit firewall, you can tamper with it there.
