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? It said your test worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem I have used LW for years 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? NO 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall Norton internet security. 16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). I live in the USA. I moved limewire to my new PC as I said and it wont fully connect. I could not see the version of java on the limewire help version.. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks for your time Jill |
