Couldn't be simpler:

Start Control Panel Windows Firewall Allow a program through
Windows Firewall Add Program....

I'll assume your using windows firewall.

Start type Windows firewall in search box Click the one that says
Windows firewall

Heres what to do next

On the left side there should be a link that says "Allow a program through
windows firewall"
If you are prompted for a Administrative user password enter it.

When it opens Click add program.
Pres the "L" key until you find limewire. (if its there)

If its not there

Click browse
goto C:\Program Files\Limewire
click Limewire.exe
click ok.
click ok again.

If its not checked in Program or pot check it then press ok.
Your done
