ive had it with limewire. i use to think it was the best thing since napster. anyway i have tried everything on this forum
to fix my connection problem. the problem i have is when i load up limewire and click connect all i ever get is 'starting connection' it never connects and i have done everything in my power to resolve this. LW worked fine for me until i decided to upgrade once i did it never worked again. Normally upgrades are suppose to be an improvment but with LW it seems to just make the program worse. i appoligize for the long thread but ive worked for 2 weeks now trying to fix this problem and its just not worth it. i now use emule and im having no problems with connections. if anyone can offer some help on how to get LW working again. that would be great.

You've probably read this, but just in case:

Have you configured your firewall for LW (& made sure you're not running 2 firewalls together)? Have you deleted the limewire preferences folder? Have you reinstalled Java & LW using the "offline" installers? Are you getting error messages? Are you seeing the firewall icon? ????????

Rather than having a rant, maybe you could describe your problem exactly, along with exactly what fixes you've tried.
No-one can help you unless you give some more info.
