Not connecting! Couldnt find answer in other peoples threads :P

[What a Legend!]

Hey dar.

Ya im aving problems with the whole connecting thing especially after 4.2.6 came into the frame. At first i couldn't connect at all, now that i've followed all your bits and bobs i connect, and i connect, and i wait. Its constantly connecting and constantly on that one green bar. If you can't help me could you give me a link where i can download 4.0.4 again? Thats worked better.

Windows XP Home
Limewire 4.2.6

Did you, maybe, also download the SP2 pack?
Did you try trashing your Limewire preferences folder?

I am having the exact same problem. I've opened every port I can find, I've deleted the preference foulder, but still no avail. The program is perpetually connecting, but it never (hours plus) moves past the first green bar. Any help would be appreciated.


I have pretty much the same stats as the guy above... windows XP home etc.

You say SP2, meaning Windows Service Pack 2? I'm not with you. I've got that already i think anyway.

Hi,

I am having the same problem with same specs. I have SP2 but I don't remember downloading it ever!

I only check for it in add/remove programmes, because i read it some where in the forum.

ANy help?
Thanks.

If you've read around for the problems that can create SP 2 (at least as far as P2P are concerned) then you'd know that the Windows firewall is activated with the upgrade.
In other words check if you have aany firewall active that may be blocking LW.

Hi I have checked for firewalls, and i don't have any on. Also, i do have SP2, or whatever its called, but thats been installed since August and nobody has touched the settings related to that.

Thanks, though.

Did you do the bug report? What did it say? True or False?
