i have talked with other limwire users many other they have no trouble have a 1 min or less download so i know for a fact that lime wire 4.8.1 pro runs faster than what i am experieceing i have followed the stickys directions i need to talk to a limewire technican becuse somthing is wrong with my lime wire im on a cable lan sysytem i know its not congested because every day i download games or software with massive amounts of mbs and i get no result from lime wire i can download 500mb as quick as i can download a 4 mb song i just bought lime wire pro and im very dissatisfied i want to know excatly all the things i need to know about my prob everything i need to know should be reply to this or im making a complaint!




when i downloads a song it takes off fine once it connects then it slowes down to 0 and then stays connected but dosent download anything i have my firewall is turned off i am behind a router and my norton worm is disabled i have my ports forwarded from my router and still nothing ;i have forwarded the gnutella ports mentioned in the connection problems part of the manual
tcp and udp and also i have tried it on pnp with no router forwarding and yet my lime wire does not work i know for a fact that my lan is not congested or that its not a lame excuse i have been having trouble with lime wire for a long long time yet it works for so many of my friends they jsut plug n play i would like a good resoution for this i think it is very unfair that i am getting done this way i dont have a lotta money but i would like to have music and i spend 20 bucks i would have paid for if this was a reliable service but no its not because its not working fresh out of the box

not to **** you off or anything but i need real help

By the way we're volunteers on a forum. This is not Limewire. You also have the option of limewire customer support: service@limewire.com

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. What firewalls you have?
2. Hard Disk space available?
3. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
4. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
5. What version of Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
5. Who is your isp provider?

Make a note of all your settings & try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire

Do this test after LW's been open 20-30 mins: Bug Report instructions & sample image

Your previous thread was answered but you didn't respond to it. So why start another thread about the same topic.

i only have one firewall and it is windows firewall it is disabled
i have 46.1 g free on hard drive
modem came from the cable company & router is a linksys firmwired nr041

i am coneccting from home
java 1.5.0
my isp is electric plant board


i have set my comptibitly to windows 2000 and i have updated my java

i dont know what you mean by make a not of my lw preferences becaue they are not things in the limewire. folder that can be made note of "do you mean copy them?"

it will be 20-30 mins before i can run bug report instructions and sample image
lime wire is still slow and stops after what i have done so far

look it says to make things as clear as possiable so i was !

Its working a whole lot better than it was before but it still needs somthing any ideals anyone?



This is not spam this is my pis* poor 1st website ive made www.devilhound.com



i think that my compaitiablity setting had alot to do with it that and that i didt have a pasword assigned to my admin account and it logged me in atuomatically as a admin and wouldnt let me chose to be the owner and put in my password at run as and then when i done that everthing was alot alot faster but its still slow to my uk friend that gets 5 second downloads so she proclaims but doesnt know how big her hard drive is lol
