Hi Cougar.
Sorry you're having such a problem. I know trap_jaw had mentioned uninstalling and reinstalling. I know you said you did that. However, I notice that when I run uninstall it doesn't always remove
all files. Have you run uninstall and then searched for any left over files and trashed them and then tried to reinstall? Maybe something is left over that is messing up the newer installs?
You said you are now using 2.3.3? Are you having any luck with that? According to the developers, you need to run 2.6 or newer to connect.
I'm sorry this isn't anything new, but sometimes, it seems with LW, you need to try and try again.
Good luck.
