Hello, there is a very easy solution to the problem so many people will run into when there Limewire won't connect.
The reason Limewire won't connect is because Limewire wants you to spend money and upgrade your account.
What I did was I downloaded another filesharing program, at that point limewire detected the other p2p program on my computer and started connecting again pronto. Just download Imesh or Kazaa, you don't have to use those programs, it's just so Limewire detects them on your computer and starts connecting again.
