Hi
Iwas using limewire for about 10 weeks, then I went home from uni for 6 weeks, didnt use it, when I came back to uni limewire wouldn't work.
I have Windows XP
As for the internet connections its wireless, BS NET if that helps. It's all on a large network here are uni, so I don't know much about it. I just turn on the computer and the internet is there! Sorry, not much help
