10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? My test worked
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Nope ...only use either LW OR WinMX.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Been an infrequent user for a couple of years now...
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes


I just desided to update the LW version and now see a brick wall ( banging my head on it now!!)
I've turned off the firewall...no go
I removed and re-installed LW... no go
I seem to be able to upload files (share) but downloads... a few (2-3) will Q up but transfer rates = 0 and they just creeeeep along.
If I have anymore firewalls, I am unaware of them...
I have a strong connection to LM... all bars.
PLEASE help??!!
Thanks, Andy.
