Hoffman,

Open Limewire, on the top bar select - TOOLS, OPTIONS, SEARCHING, SPEED, check the box "show all speeds" and select "apply".

Good luck,

Norm

Hoffman,

That is strange. I can't recall ever hearing of that before. If someone can't help you further I think it would be worth uninstalling Limewire from control panel, then manually delete anything left (ususlly a folder C:\Program Files\Limewire) and reinstall Limewire.

Okay I've deleted that file and Un-installed Limewire, then re-installed it said I was either behind a firewall or I did not have a connection to connect to Limewire. :\.

I did a search through XP Search, and has come up with 51 items, in the C drive, in various parts of my PC. I thought about Ctrl and A'ing and hitting delete, but is that a good idea? Will it have some sort of effect on my PC and stop things running if I do this?

thanks for all your help so far,

hoffman

Hoffman,

I am not sure what the 51 items are. I wouldn't just start deleting.

Have you turned of the XP firewall? If not go to Control Panel, Network Connections, Single Click on your connection, in the box at the left select "Change Settings", select the advanced tab and uncheck "protect my computer".

If this does work for you then I would recommend you get a firewall. There are several free ones out there. Zone Alarm is only one of many. You can get it here - http://downloads-zdnet.com.com/ZoneA...ml?tag=lst-0-4

It can be set up to allow Limewire to connect.

I've managed to finally connect to LW, but my ADSL firewall has been off all day anyways.. I guess it was just another error.

Every song/file that I've tried to download is STILL corrupt.. the 51 files are PROP files from older version of limewire and aload of stuff in Documents and Settings. I can post a pic later if you want.

Hoffman,

I think you would be safe doing another un install then manually deleting all the Limewire references including the entire Limewire folder in Documents and Settings before re installing.

I have to believe your issue is related to the Limewire install. Something was remaining. I still can't figure out why you would only see T3 or higher returns. If that is a true report your returns are being severly limited.

Good Luck,

Norm

hi norm,

I'll post the pic of the search that was done (on my sister's Xp account)

I'am suspecting the PROP files may have been a bit like an internet cookie, maybe they store older references and an older references may be erroring the new stuff.

okay, heres the pic: (you can see all the installers, lol)
