Question my limewire wont connect to my internet help!!!

Hi, can anyone help???

Everytime i ask limewire to search for something it comes up with a message which reads 'Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return any results until you are fully connected to the internet'.
But the thing is, i am fully connected to the internet and it still wont work. !!!

Does anyone else have that problem and any help would be much appreciated.

You know Bex

Without your equipment details we can't tell you anything, unless we have a magician as a forum member.

You saw that I asked Bex1 for computer details but yet all you did was repeat what Bex1 wrote. How do you expect to get any form of help when you say absolutely nothing about your equipment?

OK Ride1on (& Bex1)

Click on this link and provide the information asked for:

http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...tml#post235237

Once you have posted your computer and internet details the members of this forum will examine them and, if possible, provide you with suggestions you can try or a range of solutions.

You are not a thinking person are you, even though I asked for system details in my first post, instead you repeat an empty question.

Again, I ask you for system details so that you may get the help you want, instead you PM me and call me "Nerd" (unfortunely for you the term is not that instulting in the UK). And instead of posting your system details you call me "Limey" (again, that insult has lost its sting over time).

If you are really serious about getting help you will put aside any animosity you have towards me and post your system details.

Remember, I am not the only person that contributes towards this forum but, like everyone else, I need information to work with.

Default I have the same problem too

I have the exact same problem as the guys above stated. Im not sure what you want to know about my computer (I am stupid when it comes to these things) But I have a mdg computer with windows xp service pack 2. I use shaw for my internet provider. And i use shaw secure for my antivirus protection.

I have tried turning my firewall off and allowing the limewire to connect but neither of these work. It would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me in this matter.

OK Bmxguy

You have made a start but you must go to my second post in this thread and click on the link, it will take you to the list of equipment details forum members need to help solve your problem.

Once you have posted your equipment details we can start working on your problem.
