Hoffman,

I think you are exactly right. I believe the problem is in one of the prop files that remained.

Let me know what happens.

Norm

hi Norm,

Do you suggest I delete all those 51 files/folders, or just the PROP files?


Cheers,
Hoffman

Hi Hoffman,

I hesitate to say delete them all because a couple are certainly innocent eg - next to last file Paint Shop Image, the WINRAR archive is probably safe, however, if it was me I think personally I would delete them all. All that said, it is still better to error on the side of safety. You might try deleting the prop files & reinstalling but you may find yourself in an endless loop. It depends on how much time you want to spend.

The way I see it you didn't have any of these files before you installed Limewire the first time. I can't imagine what good any of them would do you with a new install and I feel like they probably hold the key to your problem.

I wish I could be more help.

Norm

Default all i can say is

I uninstalled the PRO version that I paid for.
re-installed the normal version and Im still getting the same corrupted downloads. Before you sell a product you should make sure that it actually works. Im disgusted that I actually was stupid enough to pay for something that doesnt work.

LW works for most people, but not everybody has the identical computer set up exactly the same way & same connection & same LW settings used. Whatever your problem is, I'm sure the key to a solution for it is on this forum somewhere.

hey pro is better than the normal one. (by the way we are just volunteers answearing forums) the corrupt filles are there because the riaa is trying to discourage you from uploading the songs you wan't. also this might be because some people don't check the files to make shure they work properly before sharing them. I know it sucks getting all this garbage but try not to download from T3's as they might be the music compagnies computers flooding the network with corrupt files and go in tools, options, filter, hosts and write this in
10.*.*.*
192.168.*.*
these tips should help lower the corrupt files you get I hope that you'll be able to download good files

I've gone through all that, and it seems it hasnt resolved any of my problems. However, if this can be called 'progress' , when i removed LW, and deleted the installer and those files in my C:// so that LW was gone completely, once i downloaded the installer again, and installed it, there was a file i tried to download the day before. I thought id removed everything, but i'm thinking theres something else? Any ideas? I still have everything at T3 or higher, and every file is corrupts. Limewire worked for me for months, its changed for no reason, and i cant find whats changed!

Hoffman,

Frustrating to say the least. You have tried almost everything. The only two things I can think of that are left is a registry scan after you uninstall to weed out any registry entries and (a long shot) a virus scan.
