There's several ways you can find them. One is to do a search for limewire & then delete all traces of it. But the reference you were given can be more easily understood from the image below.

Hi guys.. me again.. ok... i HAD LW working at its wonderful best yesterday.. but today.. when ive tried it... its not connecting again.. keeps telling me im either not connected to internet or firewall blocked.. i know im connected.. so Lord of the Rings, i looked at the bug report like you recommended before.. and now im getting recieved incoming this session: false.. which i know means im blocking it somehow with firewall right? but nothing has been changed since yesterday with my settings.. and when i look in my firewall thingy... LW is still ticked as exceptions.. with the ports added as per yesterday when i had excellent cnnection.. is it worth doing that deleting preferences thingy again? or will that make no difference if its a firewall glitch? AND .. if i do that.. will i loose the list of songs ive got d'ling at the moment and in the library?... im sorry to keep bothering you.. but i really like LW.. and the support you give.. so am determined not to give up on it... thanks for any assistance you can give me.. i look forward to your slant on it.. Thanks.. Maz.. from Australia

Default Still can't connect

I've worked on this connection problem a couple of times in the last couple of months. Right when I think I've got it fixed, I find I don't really. It's getting real time consuming. Time I don't have. I'm frustrated.

Supply many more specifics, such as details of probs, os version, comp specifics, java version, lw version, connection type, firewalls/routrs, etc. & I'm sure somebody will get back to you.

Default Need More Resources

I have been using LimeWire for over 2 years without problems, until recently. Now all I get is "Need More Resources". I am a power user and have tried everything posted in this forum with no resolution. Same PC, same Internet connection. Can anyone help?
