Used Command prompt for jar file but don't think it ran. Got "NoSuchMethodError". Jar file have to be in same location as LW preferences folder? Preferences are deleted, can't connect. Connected yesterday with and w/o firewall. Using XP.

hi again!!!

ok i have found l/wire to be a VERY good place to d/l music. In addition to the "fix" that has worked for me I also found that if I do not have a "good' connection or connection is "poor" if u "disconnect" from file menu and then click on "reconnect" it works like a DREAM!!!
By the way...if you are thinking of giving up and not bothering like I almost was....DONT! It is well worth the perserverance!!!!!!

People. I personally suggest that you always update your version. 4.1.7 has, for the moment had the best connection overall (almost always Turbocharged and connects in an instant.).

when I downloaded limewire, I couldn't get connected either.

so I closed it completely then delete it. Then I opened the folder to where it was downloaded and started all over again.

It works beautiful.

Try it.

Many Many thanks.

Worked like a charm

Please tell me how to find my preferences directory. I went to the C drive, but can't find it! Help!! I have XP!

Is there a number I can call for support . . . this is getting ridiculous. Thanks for your time. How do I get my money back if there is not?

Your LW prefs can be found here: Windows: C:/Documents And Settings/your_username/.limewire
Delete the folder called .limwire
Have read this thread yet? In particular read page 1 & the previous page or two. Then tell us your results. If you have a problem, you need to detail your specifications of OS, connection type & devices & whereabouts (home, school, work, etc.), & gives us details about your problem. By the way, this is not LW Support. This is a forum mostly run by volunteers who are simply experienced LW users.

Oh & no Softw company gives refunds. Otherwise people could simply copy the softw & return it without paying a cent.

I can't tell you how many times I have deleted preferences from the User's library/preferences and from the system's library/preferences and I've downloaded the 10.3.6 Combo update and I've repaired or rebuilt permissions ... and it still does the same damn thing. On launch, it gets as far as showing me the dialog about tips and it crashes.

I'm writing this in response to the LimeWire support person who asked for feedback ... the thing that makes me hopping mad is how I've paid for the Pro version twice and while I wait months and months for you to not just fix it but even ANSWER your email, the 6-month period has elapsed and I can't even use the software I paid for.

It is a despicable way of doing business.
