Please Help Every time I try to download from Limewire I get an error message stating "Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search might not contain many results until you are connected to the network"...I have tried turning off my Firewall, and nothing helps...It never connects no matter how long I have the program running. Can someone please help me to resolve this issue? Thanks |

Other options I can think of at this point is ... is there another user account on your computer? If not create one with admin permissions. Then reset LW up for it. Only need a shortcut to the new account from the program (do it from old account), no need to re-install. Disable all firewalls temporarily in the new account. BOTH norton & XP firewall. Then try to connect. BTW did you remove all your java & install java 1.5_11 ? You could try Phex to see if you have the same problems. It is another gnutella program. |

Right here are the last resorts you can try...Dont question them just do it... You will not lose your files either... Try uninstalling all versions of Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.11 offline version.... Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11 Then uninstall Limewire using the uninstaller which is found in start > all programs > limewire...then re-install it using the offline installer...To find the offline installer, use the link below > cancel the installer window when it pop's up and then select the offline installer link... Lime Wire » Download LimeWire If that does not help with your problem try deleting your preference folder/s...This will reset your configurations back to default and get rid of any corruption that may of happened... Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista If that doesn't work, it's your ISP, as Orange are well known for blocking p2p applications...
