Do you mean numbers of results show up next to the search term, but no results show in the search window? How many numbers of results for example will show up?
Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
4. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
5. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
6. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
7. * Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)?
8. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
9. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?
10. Try an experiment; downld a magnet link from this site & tell us what happens: http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml | The number of results is zero. I think it's my computer...I've been having lots of problems lately...I'm getting a laptop in a couple of weeks, I just bought a Linksys Speedbooster router. I have roadrunner cable modem, I use Windows XP. But I took it to Best Buy a LONG time ago b/c I had spyware and it completely took over my computer. They fixed it but ever since I have not beenm able to get on a secure website AT ALL. I can't buy from E-bay, do online shopping of any kind, online banking, etc. I have the latest java, but I had to manually install it b/c of the "secure" problem. So I'm sure this is is just another problem do to my screwed up processor. The laptop that I am getting will prettyt much totally replace this, except to store files. So hopefully it will work on that.
The page that you sent me to, said that "my test worked" and the magnet link went to my download queue but said it needed more sources....So....hmmmm? Thanks a lot for trying to help me.   |
