Talking A Fix!

After not being able to connect for weeks I began searching my registry for LimeWire.

After several mins. of searching I came across this registry key.

My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wind
ows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache

C:\Progra~1\LimeWire\LimeWire.exe

Now if you don't know how to edit the registry you SHOULD NOT attempt this as this is the brain of windows and you could destroy your installation. But INSTANTLY after I removed this KEY I was able to Connect at Turbo Charged Status again.

Does removing this key have any adverse affects? Or is this the ban by windows mentioned in my last post?

Opinions please.

I reposted this in its own spot incase it works for more people so it'll be able to be stickied.

Thanks,
Clayton

Default RE: Fix *UPDATE*

Also you need to open LimeWire, KILL all downloads, and restart limewire. Never close it without killing downloads and you shouldn't hit connection limit again.

It's a little bit difficult to sticky a thread when the name of the user breaks forum rules: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/announ...?s=&forumid=29 You're not allowed to leave any personal details such as names & contact details. If you correct this then there's less chance of this thread being deleted & maybe even stickied.
Your advice is obviously not for the novice & could cause more troubles than it's worth. But effective answer anyway.
