Nope, all the suggestions that you gave me as well as hundreds of others does not work. Why when a consumer purchases a program from a company, such as Limewire, it takes an entire day and part of another day to figure out? Why should we, a consumer have to join a forum to get help from others? Why can't things just work? If they don't work, don't sell them! This has been the most frustrating thing for me. I lost more time at work yesterday than it cost me to buy limewire!!!! This is a joke...and then do you think we are dummies? We joined this forum for a reason... to figure out the problem on our own since Limewire HAS NOT CONTACTED ME BACK ABOUT MY ISSUE, and has no LIVE SUPPORT! I have tried all the suggestions like everyone else and once again, here I sit STILL trying to figure this out... Your suggestions haven't work, won't work, but are appreciated. LIMEWIRE PEOPLE HELLO........Can you just pick up the phone and walk people thru this? I mean come on, how long would it really take? We pay you to join limewire....give us what we paid for or shut the doors!

LimeWire Basic is free.
It's difficult to help when you haven't provided any details of your set up at all. The forum rules specify for connection problems details need to be provided. We cannot help much without them other than point you to some general suggestions. Case closed by the looks. Most likely you'd have same problem with using any other p2p sharing program.

That's the problem with p2p sharing programs, many people expect them to always work perfectly out of the box without any settings made on their computer.

System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) ... did you try these suggestions first? http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html

thank you so much! it worked perfectly

what do u mean delete the directory in limewire in c/douctuments and programe files u mean the whole folder just delete it ?

what do u mean the directory the whole foldr ?

The folder called 'Limewire' found at the above location.

Next time you open LW, it will create a fresh folder.

Ok, I have been using Limewire forever, my sub. expired and I renewed today and BOY AM I SORRY..... I have spent an entire day drying to deal with this firewall issue, emailing back and forth tech. support from Limewire and they just keep responding with everything I have already been prompted to try. They need to get off their butts and fix the problems. I have requested a refund, and of course, no response. I will be cancelling the charge on my credit card.

Good Luck everyone! I give up!

Someone in the tech dept. is on crack!!! Find the solution or give us our money back!!!!!!!
Miamio

There's a very good reason we demand System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) as stated in forum rules for Connection Problems. We cannot help much without them other than suggest try the suggestions in this thread http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html

Not everyone's connection problem is the same, so knowing what type of system you have, routers, isp, etc. & use history can help us determine what suggestions to make to help.

Hey Tammy To the Gnutella Forums.

Can you tell us what all you have tried to fix this issue.
There are two Fixes that have worked for Many Members, that I will give you to try. If you've tried these with No Success, then we can try a few others. See Below.


First of all, delete LW's preferences folder. See the thread below (click on link) for instructions. If you've deleted the prefs folder properly, you'll go through LW's setup wizard again when you restart LW.

If that doesn't fix things, delete or replace the gnutella.net file (instructions for that in the thread below as well). Otherwise, try the other fixes there.

If LW Will Not Connect
If nothing there helps, please post back with your system details.

Hope this Helps.
