By the way, when I was trying the 'replace gnutella.net file' suggestion to see if it would get LimeWire to connect, I kept running into a strange problem where the file was saved as an MPEG-1 Video file. I tried several different links provided here on the forums, and each time it was the same: I clicked the link, a pop-up window informed me I'm trying open a BINARY file and asked what I want to do, I clicked the 'Save File' button and got a file named gnutella.net with a QuickTime MPEG icon on it. I ended up downloading it on a Windows machine and transferring the file to my Mac to get a usable copy of it. I've never encountered anything like this before; have you any idea why it happened?
