BESIDES THE ACTIONS I TOOK BEFORE, I ALSO TURNED WINDOWS FIREWALL OFF.......SO, NORM YOU KNOW IT NOW........STILL CAN'T CONNECT.!!!!!!!!!

YES, Norm, i tried with it too....would u still help me???

figuerman,

Service pack 2 is causing a lot of problems especially with Java applications.

If you have looked through this thread without any luck - http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=28437

Then I think I would do a system restore to a date before SP2. If you aren't familiar with that feature go to - Start, All Programs, Accessories, System tools, System restore and choose a date prior to SP2.

Good luck,

Norm

Hi pals....I swer i did everything: checked firewalls, uninstal-reinstall limewire, trashed preferences, installed 2 ports 6346 gnutella, desabled firewalls....etc. And i still get the bug report message "received incoming this session: false" . I even downloaded and installed a patch suggested here, wich was installed automatically in dos mode (i think that's correct). I restarted and tried everything...but the best i get is a POOR quality, and even so i can't download a thing..... i need your help....THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION....

i installed this patch http://www.lvllord.de/?url=tools but i see no results.....

This might not be any help but have a look at my suggestions in http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=29665 It may well be an SP2 issue. You could search SP2 on the forum b/c some people came up with their own solutions that fixed theirs & others but not everybody's problems. Strange the way that happens, but then SP2 also hasn't affected everybody either.
