Hi guys, done a search and couldnt find anything about this so sorry if it has been posted before but I did look.

My sister cant connect to Limewire and I dunno what the problem is.

I have the main computer with cable modem etc and Limewire runs absolutely fine with me - no problems. My sister and mums computer connect to my computer for internet and everything works fine but only tonight has limewire stopped working and cant find a problem.

My computer has sp2 and my sis has standard xp. Ive took off the firewalls and still she cant connect at all.

Ah well, if anyone needs any extra info ill give as much as I can.

Cheers

Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire

Do you know if your modem/router supports UPnP (Universal Plag & Play)?

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?
