Well Guys, "sestey, and memyselfandi1975" I guess you should stop using Limewire then, LOL

First off, This is the Gnutella Forums, Not the LW Forums. LOL

Second Off, And the Funniest part, is that this is Not our Product. Everyone here that offers up any help on these Forums are Volunteers.
The Admin., Super Mods., The Mods., and the Valued Members are here only to assist members like your RUDE selves. We get Absolutly Nothing for what we do.
What we do get is a little satisfaction when some of the members recognize us when we are able to help them.

I also get a little satisfaction knowing that A$$holes like yourselves probably Won't get any further help here because of your Sh!t Attitudes.

If you want help, go here and Cry to them for having such a Steaming Piece of Crap Program.

its actually simple...if lw has worked in the past, close lw then hit ctrl-alt del and go to processes, find lumewire.exe and end it, make sur lw tray icon is gone...the explore to

Username/Documents and Settings/application data/limewire

and delete that file...next re-boot and start lw...it will work

Hi. I'm not a technically minded person, but I'll try and give you as much detail as possible.

I have a Mac OS X 10.4.11
Broadband Connection 4mgbts (I think)
Frostwire 4.17

I have used limewire with no problems before but recently couldn't connect to the network. As a result I downloaded Frostwire but with no success. After I installed the program it trys to connect but comes up with the error message

"frostwire could not detect an internet connection. please check your firewall settings and try to restart frostwire ".

If anyone could help me that would be great but could I please ask if you can take me through it in easy and simple way
