Hi again...

I did what u told me to do..

I installed OS 10.3.7 Combo, but still the same this time when I start LW it takes long time to launch, when it's lunched it;s keeping connecting after that it gives me a massege that u r not connected to the internet or Firwall is blocking u.

I am connecting to the internet + there is no problem with my Firewall .

Hmm, try the Java standalone installer then. The link is above. If that fails, try the Jum build. There's some small differences with that version. That link is also above.

Ah so you have a firewall. Did you configure it for LW: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml

So you tried the Jum build & it still wouldn't connect?

After installing everything did you repair permissions? See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...6094#post96094

Whilst LW is closed try deleting LW's Prefs folder found here: /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire (this will mean you will need to reset the preferences settings within LW next time you open it.)

Give LW some time to connect. Even go to the file menu & select disconnect & then select connect again. Wait some time to give it a chance to load everything - the incomplete & shared files which can take a while.

Can you provide more info about your connection. How large is the lan? Is it run with just macs or is it controlled by a windows machine? Do you know what the connection device & router is (brand & model, etc.)?

You mean you had LW working before this version? Which version were you using before?

So you were 'already' using 4.2.6 when you 1st started having problems or another version? Or you only started having problems when you updated to 4.2.6? What version were you using before that?
