More details please. Can you give us a total desciption of your set up: 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) 2. What firewalls you have? 3. ram? 4. Hard Disk space available? 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? 7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? 8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 9. Who is your isp provider? 10. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. |
1. Win xp 2. Zone Alarm... but I have had it a long time and Limewire worked fine till lately 3. 756 ram 4. 80 gig / 57 gig left to use 5. high speed wireless / Adams Net 6. Belkin ( work before with this router) WaveRider modem for wireless, Adams Net supplied. 7. Home 8. 4.8.1 (I have even un-installed and re-installed 9. Adams Net 10. Have use several version Of LW and loved it till now. I tried to delete the LW file as told in some of the post's, didn't work. I even tried a system resore to a day when I downloaded some MP3's... That didn't work either. What do you suggest I do now. |
Try uninstalling Java using the Add/Remove Programs control panel. Then re-install Java: Fixes for Limewire Do you know whether your Belkin router can utilitse UPnP technology? Also make sure your firewalls are configured: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml Make a note that it's not always wise to run 2 firewalls b/c they may interfere with each other. |
I did notice that a Java automatic update had taken place around the time LW quit working. It's same router I have always had and LW worked fine for years. Also LW worked with ZA settings. I will try the un-install of Java 1st. Thanks |
I un-installed Java and both updates in the add / remove. Then went to www.java.com and re-installed Java. Still can't connect. What next? |
Help me Mr Wizard EEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwww..... Air is going out of my Limewire balloon! I need a fix. |
No you chose the auto update java. Installing over the net can cause issues. Go back to my link about LW fixes & choose the Java installers & save them to your computer & then install them. Reboot before opening LW. Sometimes Java 1.4.2 works better for some compared to others. |
Will do Eye Eye Capt. I will try again. |
dbl post Sorry for the double post.... You should kick my newbie butt. I have un-installed Java again and am downloading the 1.4.2 file now, but it's taking awhile. It's late and I may finish this up tomorrow. I will post you on how it works. Thanks again. |
