how do I get rid of the firewall I've never had problems before with my limewire. Yesterday I installed the security patches for windows vista that my computer downloaded, and now my limewire doesn't work. I open it and it shows its connected and the brick wall is infront of the globe and when you try to seach it brings up nothing. The brickwall went away for a little bit yesterday and it worked but my mom accidently shut lime wire down and now its doing the same thing as before. Never had this problem until yesterday after I installed those patches. Any help would be great not real great with computers so I need specifics on where to go. 1. OS version? Windows Vista Home Premium 2. What firewalls you have? Windows firewall and 3. How much ram? 2048 mb 4. Hard Disk space available? 291 GB 5. Connection type? Cable 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? D-link modle name dcm-202 7. Where are you trying to connect from? Home 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW V.4.12.11, Java 6 9. Who is your ISP provider? Charter Communications 10. 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? It worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. It has been working fine since we got the comp in jan and I just installed security patches for vista and now it wont work 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? yes |
I fixed it after I posted the thread. I deleted my hosts and got new ones in connections like someone else did in another post and the brick wall went I away and now it works. |
