limewire problem

hi
i am using eset smart security with the firewall at the default level
limewire cannot connect
i also use utorrent which is working,no problems
in the limewire configuration,u can choose which port to use,maybe i could use a certain port and this would help?
if so,which port?
or maybe some other solution?
thank you.

 

Switch the firewall to Interactive mode... then load limewire it should prompt you for internet access.

GLuck

 

the reason why i haven't changed it to interactive mode is because i don't understand all the questions the firewall will then start asking
do you mean change to interactive mode,then select allow for limewire,once that is done,put the firewall in default mode again?

 

That should work also once the rule is created it should keep it once you switch it back to auto.

 

thank you
