Datul Hi.
It will not be possible to use, because Limewire will not work without java &
java is always being improved & upgraded.
4.0.7 is now finished, so try as you might no amount of reinstalling will help

mick ,

could u pls ensure that 4.0.7 no longer works anywhere?
One thing would be to ensure is that if i get to talk to someone who works for limewire community , like some developers or designers of lime wire software .
could u pls help me out in this regard?

Thanks mick

Hi datul,
I don't have a version as old as you, oldest I have is 4.8.1
My 4.8.1 still works (with Java 6), but honestly...I wouldn't use it , unless it was as a test for someone. You might want to look at the LW changelog...then you'll be able to see exactly what changes have been made since 4.0.7.
http://www.limewire.com/english/cont..._history.shtml

There have been some huge improvements since way back then & LW is so much better now. You don't have to get rid of your 4.0.7 installer if you love it, but do consider the newer versions...they're great

Sorry for jumping in Mick, hope you don't mind

thanks birdy
the reason why i am using lime wire 4.0.7 because compression option is not mandatory in this , but higher version to this, this option has been declared mandatory .
i want to see its uncompressed packets and write some decode for them .
anyway, thanks for the help guys !!

bye

Hey you guys I hope I'm not repeating any questions but I am honestly confused and unable to find answers! I am not very computer savvy either...But I'm learning! Okay here goes: I have Windows XP and dial up internet connection. My dell desktop is a dimension 4600. I'm not sure how much space is free though. Recently I took some advice that I found elsewhere in the forum.. But here goes. My mum downloaded LM 4.12.6 I think? Yeah..And it works fine..As long as you are on my brother's desktop and my Mum's AOL screenname. But how can I get LM on the other desktops? I tried going into the search in the start menu...But every LM I've opened through that has been empty. And I've had to set everything like new. I have some songs downloaded already...How can I get the same LM on each desktop? And also...I am having a he**-of-a-time trying to get into the firewall settings of MY aol sn!! I got the okay and I know my mum's password..But when I go into security I get this site called Discover AOL saying I need to download AOL security! Is it possible to use LM on other sn's?I am so confused... These computers are uber confusing...O.o

Windows:
C:/Documents And Settings/your_username/.limewire

Linux:
~/.limewire

Please shutdown any instance of LimeWire you may have running, delete the whole directory, and then restart LimeWire. You should be able to connect.

I'd love to hear how this works for everyone.

Thanks!
