So you can't connect to Phex either! Not good!!! Says something about either your setup or your ISP.
But give Phex time, it can take some time on occasions to connect. You'll see in the bottom left corner how many peers you're connected to. On the connections page, peers connected to will be listed in green. ;)

still no connections :(

i dont understand how it would be my isp, i was just over my friends house this morning he has the same one and i tested limewire onhis pc

another thing, we had someone get in a car accident here and hit some telephone poles, it fried alot of things (tvs, game systems, computers, my old computer) do u think that could have something to do with it? i mean... i can connect to the internet but maybe something messed up inside my modem for p2p?

Perhaps as suggested by another member, check your friend's setup & see what difference there is between yours & theirs. I'm not sure the reason for your problem. I presume you have all other utilities such as spyware, etc. allowing permission for LW.
BTW ISP's have been known to only apply filters or shapers to individuals. Have you ever been able to connect to LW? Do you use games that play over the internet & do they work ok?

yai havent been able to connect to any p2p on this computer, i can play games

umm you said about spyware allowing limewire, I dont know if i have any spyware lol

Ok then, check your friends set up out, then see if you can apply the same to yours. If no success, let us know. I'll get an earlier version LW to you & see if you can connect with that one.

Spyware programs meaning anti-spyware & anti-adware, etc. Does your ISP offer you any special security for connecting to the internet?

well when i went to his house everything looked the same i didnt know where all to look, i checked the firewall and his was on and it still worked, he has windows firewall

Have you tried connecting with both Norton & XP firewall turned off? I don't normally recommend it but it's worth a try to find out whether that's the issue.

jimbo-ice January 11th, 2007 11:26 AM

ya i tried, it said theres still a firewall blocking it

Check your personal messages & follow the advice carefully. That must be done if the suggestion is to have any chance at succeeding. ;) :)
