Unhappy Is anyone else still having problems?

Running LimeWire 2.5.5 on Win2K Pro.
Was running fine until a week ago.
Now, I can connect occasionally (once or twice in 4 hours) but it only lasts for 2 to 10 minutes before I'm back to RedLightCity...

I've tried all prescribed solutions in this thread & many from others. Has LW weighed in recently?

Thanks

Hey Greg. maybe you can help me out too. i downloaded lw 2.5.5 and i have os 10.2. ive tried entering 208.239.76.100. does it make a difference if their is a period at the end? should i write the port in with it when i add it in quick connect? I also tried changing the port from 6346 to 6347 and it didnt make a difference. And does it make a difference that I am on a LAN? and if it does what can i do about that? Thank You

Default Not working here

I've been trying to run Limewire on my OSx on my new iBook 700 and have had no luck whatsoever. Even after adding the new IP manually and even changing the Port number I still haven't been able to connect. The IP just flashes for a millisecond and dissappears just like all the others. I know that my college T1 network isn't blocking it, so what is the problem. Its been 6 since I first downloaded Limewire and so far I haven't been connected once. Can anyone help me out here??

Maybe you in particular oh great and powerful Greg?

Need help,
Tylaris

Red face london calling
