Please Help with LimeWire settings.

What are the recomended settings for LimeWire? It defaulted to

Action = Allow
Protocol = TCP or UDP
Direction = Out

Is this correct? Or should the Direction be “In”

Also svchost keeps wanting server rights, is this ok to allow?

Thanks
Mark

Hi,

Why not put the direction to In/Out that way you have both just in case.

For the correct settings check this post

Just follow the instructions using the correct port for LimeWire

I am a complete newbie with this. I just want to make sure I don’t leave any open holes.

my ports are set to any, not a particular one

??? The ports of limewire? In this chase I suggest that you set a single port 6346 or 6348 on limewire

ps.KCeasy is much,much better than limewire and is a free opensource program
