| (To kill 2 birds with one stone.) Also can you tell us about your connection setup? Just in case of potential issues: What brand name & model number of modem & router do you use? Do you use a firewall? Are you connecting from work/home? Some dsl/adsl modems/routers use NAT (as does Apple's airport) which blocks most incoming ports in a similar fashion to a firewall. If you use such a modem we can forward a port for it. A quick check is if you visit this site (ignore the text in the red box) & tell us what it says in the grey box underneath 'The Applet': All I need to know is what's probably on the 4rth line & it says about NAT (eg: It would appear that your machine does use NAT.)

I am using cogeco cable high speed internet..how would i check the model number on my modem? that all came with the computer.
The router is a RCA digital|BROADBAND the model number is dcm305.
no firewalls, i checked.
i am connecting from home.
im not sure what website you are referring to, however i do have another filesharing program (acquisition) and i dont have this problem with that program. i dont know if that helps any.
i'll try the other ideas now! thanks a bunch for the quick reply, im really stoked on trying out limewire. Moreso now that's i've been putting such an effort into just opening it up! haha.
edit:
-i dont remember installing mac os...i think my mom might of done it, or it came installed.
-that's how i updated java, so i don't think that's the problem...
