![]() I believe Vista Media is blocking somehow. I have tried port forwarding, changing ports, etc. I can't ever find a decent proxy server, so any help otherwise would be appreciated. Limewire will connect sometimes, and sometimes I can get search results, but never a download. It frequently drops connection though. I wouldn't be overly concerned had my girlfriend not somehow formatted my hard drive a couple of days ago. Now, no music. OS version? XP 2. What firewalls you have? windows firewall 3. How much ram? 512 4. Hard Disk space available? 40gb 5. Connection type? cable 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Motorola Sb5100 & linksys wrt54g 7. Where are you trying to connect from? House 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? 4.2.11 and jdk6 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Vista III Media 10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? Says test worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? no 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Have been using it for a while 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?yes |
