I don't have a directory, library...anything. I have been working on this all day!! I have connected in the past. Not today - I even purchased it. Limewire claims i have a firewall -- but I know I don't. Someone please help.

Not sure grumpygbp, I am aware LW has changed location for storing the LW download preferences but not sure if it is now in the preferences folder or not. See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/window...downloads.html & check to see if that has affected you. You can go to the Library window, select incomplete folder & see if the files are listed inside. If they are, then select all of them & press Resume button.

The LW preferences are now within a 'hidden' folder. So you need to turn on Show All Hidden Files & Folders under view options when in the search window of your computer.

Don't forget to try these tips: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html

It's a hidden directory. Depends which system you're using.

C:\Documents and Settings\*yourusername*\Application Data\LimeWire

Application Data folder is HIDDEN. So when you use the search function, turn on Show All Hidden Files & Folders in View options.

Else for VISTA see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...der-vista.html
