aight....here's the deal, i just downloaded the newest version of limewire, 3.3.4, I'm running a 56k, windows XP, and it switches between connected and disconnected, just back and forth, i cant connect it manualy, and apparently the settings dont matter, so....wat do i do, I'm at a loss! someone help me please!!

Wait a couple minutes for Limewire to get stable connections. What I believe you are seeing is Limewire briefly opening a connection, determining that it isn't stable, and then closing the connection and looking again. i would try waiting a couple minutes to see if the problem solves itself, by LW finding a stable host.

thanx BlakBird for trying, but that already occured to me....ive also sent u an email because i dont know wat u check more often, but thats the first thing that came to mind, except i waisted about an hour of time that could've been used downloading on kazaa, if i still had it (the eamil explains that one more...my fingers are starting to hurt from typing emails, IM's, and now this, makes it hard to reach all the keys) but i hope you could give me some insight, as a limewire user that is, im assuming ur a limewire user of course (and do read the email, it has some important info. incase u need it...i think i put in there...ohh well) once again PLEASE HELP!!!!!
