![]() Alright, so I've downloaded LimeWire onto my friends computer but I'm at home right now. I had the same problem, it wasn't connecting until I had to switch out the gnutella.net file. I was going to do that, since she has the latest version of SunJava, and it's not her ISP because we have the same one. And my LimeWire still works, so there's another reason... All I need to know is the path where the gnutella.net file is. I went to C:\, Program Files, Limewire and searched there but it wasn't there, I knew it wasn't but I checked incase. Anyone know the C:\<path> to it? :/ And the URL for a new gnutella.net file. Thanks. :] |

![]() You must show all hidden files like so:- Note: These instructions are for Windows XP SP2 [1] Open windows explorer:- select Tools à Folder Options à View à Show hidden files and folders. [2] In windows explorer look for the Limewire Folder – go here:- c:\documents and settings\username\applications data\LimeWire (or) c:\documents and settings\username\limewire [3] Ensure that limewire is off completely - (check that it's not running in the system tray-bottom right) now open the .limewire folder and look for and delete the gnutella.net file ![]() [4] Now download a new version and save it to your desktop - go here (gnutella.net) file [5] Now drag the new gnutella.net file from your desktop into the limewire folder. [6] Close the LW Folder and start up Limewire Hope this helps
