Do you have Windows Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed? This can cause connection problems. There are a couple of patches you can get for this

Microsoft one
http://support.microsoft.com/default.as ... %5d;884020

and another one

That's really about all I can think of! If you're using SP2 give a patch a go (I use the MS one but a lot of people prefer the other one).

*to find out if you've got SP2 installed go Start > right click on My Computer > properties. In the General section you'll see a description of your OS & it will tell you if SP2's installed

Yes i have the SP2(wow,everything in my pc is against me) so will this update thing fix the problem?

[birdy]

I don't know
I hope so!!!

If this doesn't work, and I really hope it does... I would suggest using your computer at a freinds house or a friends computer at your house just to be absolutely sure if its a computer problem (which I think it is) or a connection problem ... Just a thought

Well,i dowloaded the update thing,and i restarted the pc as instructed,but FW STILL doesnt connect,its ben almost 20 minutes now and still nothing,so i guess there are a lot of problems with my pc,and the firewall icon is still there too.(seriosuly,everything in my pc is against me

Ok try this... change your FW port to something in the range of 49152 - 65535 (for example port 64049). Remember to Apply to save the change. Also remember to change the port number within your Norton firewall setup.
Give LW time to connect after you've changed ports.

If it's still not connecting, try Bearshare Lite

See if another p2p app has the same problems!!

As I suggested before, It would be worth checking if your computer/frostwire would work on a friends computer. I was going to make a suggestion similar to Cyberwraith's .. Norbies World offers good online help and might find something that's causing this.

You think were going to give up now? No way

Well ive decided to try one last time! please ANY of you make a short list of settings my pc(or other things) need to be so FW can work,really would apreciate it,i hope that if i set things as they should be than FW will work

I'm not a PC user so cannot suggest settings, but please let us know if you followed Cybrwraith's suggestion, or mine. These sites have helped a lot of people, and could well help you. ... one of them might find some item or setting that would otherwise have been overlooked.
