Check here for how to find the preferences folder (folder is named LimeWire) in Vista: LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista
Make sure that LW is completely closed (check in Task Manager) before deleting the prefs folder, otherwise it will have no effect

Not sure what you mean about turning off auto load If you mean disabling LW running at system startup - which version of LW are you using?

Default Help needed

Hello everyone,
I have been trying to connect to Limewire for days know and trying virtually everything. I have windows xp and I'm using norton 2010. Every time I try to connect it says I'm behind a firewall and it does not support firewall transfers. Likewise, I tried everything from deleting the preference folder, uninstalling/reinstalling, getting the most up to date version, upgrading to Limewire PRO. So as you can see, I've tried everything so can some one anyone help me.....

Have you tried any of the various other fixes in the threads below (depending on whether you were originally using LW 4 or LW 5)?
If LW 4 Will Not Connect

If LW 5 Will Not Connect

If nothing there helps, please post back with your system details (threads above have info about which details we need)

This does not really tell me where to find the directory. I have XP, I go to C:/Documents and Settings, but what is "your username" under? I have two folders under Documents and Settings, All Users and Owner, then several folders under each of those. Where do I find what I need?
