I was checking out your links, and I tried the one that you hit disconnect and wait five mins. and then hit connect! I don't know if it was just lucky, but it worked in a little bit after I reconnected! THANKS a million!!!! I hope it continues to work!

Well Done

THANK YOU! Kind words from real "BRAINS" are well appreciated!! I copied and pasted a couple of your threads for easy access if needed!

Also I just opened Limewire and it connected immediately!!! Unbelievable!!! It's great to be connected once more! But in case I do have any more problems I know who I can turn to!

Au Revoir!

LW links are changed at times to match the current problems.

All I did was go into:
Start/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services
and in Services I enabled Universal Plug and Play and Wam Bam Kapow.
All the sudden the little green bars started showing up and I was connected.

I hope this helps.

VISTA, Avast anti-virus, LW stopped connecting last week...

In Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes -- if still no good click on (Fixes for LW when LW isn't operating as it should) if after all this your problem remains click on (system details) fill in and post back here
