sort of offtopic but, what port does limewire use, I want to block it on my connection.

google "limewire default port" says 6346 for gnutella and 45100 for magnet.

Is this where I should enter the information at to block it?

I dunno, depends where you live I guess, but in the us they seem to give out 1000s of lawsuits a year, and not just to the big sharers, casuall p2p users have been sued.

Because it uses up most of the bandwith thus giving me a high ping in games.

it all depends on what port that is lol, it could shut down the pathway for useful things
