Why wont LIMEWIRE work since I installed norton anti virus?

It was working could it be the phising protection, I dont know what that is but I think since I enaballed that, thats when it started affecting limewire. If it is that how do I turn it off?



Thanks in advance.

It's just NAV you have? Not Norton Internet Security?



NIS has a firewall and you need to aloe Limewire to connect.



Try to look at http://www.limewire.com/support/ , http://www.limewire.org/wiki/index.php?t... and http://portforward.com/



Edit: Or you can try to uninstall Limewire and install it again.



Edit2: You have NIS. Full version.



Then you need to allow Limewire to connect to the net in NIS.



Turning NIS off is NOT recommended to do.



Solution



Third-Party Security Programs



Many third-party security programs block LimeWire from connecting either by restricting access to the port that LimeWire uses to connect to the Gnutella network (i.e. - a firewall), the program itself, or a combination of the two. These programs may have been pre-installed on your computer when you first purchased it. Check the Windows system tray (usually located in the bottom-right corner of the screen, next to the time), and locate the icon that is associated with the security program that you are using. Right-click the icon to enter the settings.
