I'm not sure what to do to be honest.
All of a sudden I only have one green bar after connecting and I'm sorta wondering what the best options would be.
Thanks for your interest Remoc. I'm OK and yes it has been quite a while since I was on these forums, glad you still remember me.
Been lurking nearly every day but after my disastrous start at giving advice and a big rap over the knuckles from Peerless
I thought it better to leave the advice giving to those with a bit more experience.

Hi ,Back again.
I tried most of the things in the section (if Limewire will not connect) and none of them seem to work.
I've done the temporary switching off of my firewall and AV and tried to get a connection without success.
And I've uninstalled Limewire twice (using the start menu) and re-installed it.
I've made sure that only one firewall is working and it is set to auto which is what it was when Limewire was working, so I'm at a bit of a loss at the moment as to what to try next. I'm not sure whether updating to version 5 will help or not so I haven't tried it.
Do you think I should update my Java Runtime environment (mine is still the basic Java 1.6.0 that came with Vista) would that help?
(I've already downloaded the java 1.6.14 latest version JRE already and that's sitting in the download folder if you think that might help.)
Any and all suggestions will be tried in the hope that I can get some connection to the network.
Thanks!
