Stupid question but have you turned of the windows firewall (sp2 turns it back on by default)

Lots of people have trouble using p2p and sp2, i did so i just uninstalled it.

sp2 is a pain

what exactly are the big benefits of sp2? just the firewall? I've found sp2 to be annoying regarding software.

ive never found any problem with it, i just dont have it slip streamed yet, so i dont have it installed. it has more security with it. and with most p2p programs, they offer a patch and other advice for sp2 problems

I would still go with LimeWire. So far i have no viruses/spyware from it, and the speed is awesome (depending on the server tho). At times if im downloading multiple files, the total speed can total up to 300 kb/s ;)
