Well, i've set my Firewall to accept it, but it says somthing like
"Eaither your firewall or loopback connections in the local machine. I have allowed to to acces the internet, and in the Limewire help thing it says i have to get in it, but all i can see is the opening thingy and then that message and it shuts down, please help?

You will need to install Java and LimeWire manually First go to the first link.You can find Links to java in there Download Java to your hard drive by putting a mark in the save to disc box. Save it to my documents or wherever you save downloads from the Internet. Do the same with LimeWire the second link will take you there.

Now with that done click on start then control panel add/remove programs and see if Java is listed on the list if it is uninstall it. Do the same with LimeWire if the un installers were not loaded you may have to manually delete the files. But in most cases this is not necessary.

Now click on the Java installer you saved to your hard drive and follow the instructions after you have completed that do the same with LimeWire.


Make sure you choose the manual installer

I Have Manually Installed Java And Limewire Again. Still Nothing. I Used To Be Able To Use Limewire With Out A Prob. Then One Day I Started Getting Those Messages!!

1. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)

2. Check your firewall is properly configured & that UPnP on your device is enabled; see Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)
