Ok,
thanks for the feedback, gives something to work with.

Macafee web site, may have a tool to remove all reg entries, TRY THAT FIRST.
If not you can go to Start/search, search for Macafee

Now Go to, Start/Search/click on all files n folders/more advanced options/
& make sure, case sensitive, is not ticked. (all other boxes should be ticked)
Now!!, Put Macafee in box, (all or part of file name) & click search.
Delete everything found, including Prefetch folder, (I mean everything)
Re BOOT Your computer NOW.
Then search for whatever the Macafee company name is, same method.
For instance Nortons name is Symantec (registered company name)
And Delete what Macafee files you find.
Re start comp & try L/W again.
Let us know how you get on.
Peace.

mmmmm....that's my only virus protection and we kinda paid for a 3 year so...yea...

Bearshare connected so wtf?

Ok
If bearshare works, it connects to the same network, so in theiry you should
get the same search resolts, So give it a try.
Let us know how it works with Macafee.

P.S.. Its not the only firewall you have, You also have the option of using windows firewall.

Limewire + Vista + McAfee = NO CONNECTION

It's not just the McAfee firewall that's the problem it's the whole security program and as quoted by the limewire developers themselves unless McAfee do something about a fix it is just not going to work...

So you have 2 options get rid of McAfee (the whole thing) or get rid of Limewire....
Disabling the firewall is not going to fix your problem....

Also half the time you call your ISP customer support and they don't even know what a Nat firewall is....So even if you do get rid of McAfee you may still have to Port Forward and it's really not that hard....

This is not my computer it is the family computer and I'm pretty damn sure that my mom would not approve of me removing a 3 year subscription to Macafee that SHE PAID FOR. I have conected 4 differnet occasions now to Limewire with all firewalls on and all. One time I left it connected for 2 days and it kept working!!! It stopped working when I was dowloading music like it hit a limit or something...but when I wasn't using it it was fine! You can't say that those 2 DAYS were some huge error within Macafee...

Well i uninstalled mcafee............................................ .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ...............................(Dramatic Pause)............................................ ............

IT WORKS OMG IT WORKS:idea: :idea: :yikes: :idea: :gimmimore: :xirokrotima: :xeri_ok1ani: :w00t: :dance: :dance:

Now I'm going to install components one by one and determine which components are the problem...

I Am God!!!!!
 

:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:


I got mcafee and limewire working and I'm going to post what component i installed to work.

:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

See a little push in the right direction...:D

Please do let us know what works and what doesn't within McAfee...

You have done well....:idea:

:aweof: Big congrats larsenator4000, :xirokrotima: :xeri_ok1ani: :D.

Any info you can post is sure to help other vista users :).

Were all rooting for you mate (Nice One)
Dont forget to reboot your comp after the addition of each component of
Macafee, then when you find the guilty component, there may be a setting that
can be reconfigured.
