Try these fixes.. Go to Tools > Options > Searching > Lisence Warning and make sure the box is not ticked and select apply... If that does not help try going to your Connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it... Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more... (try to take note of the hosts IP numbers if the same ones keep re-appearing add them to your host filter...) ;) Tools > Options > Filters and select the Host Filter and add these IP's into it and select apply... If those fixes don't work for you, could you tell me the make and model number for your modem as many of them have Nat Firewalls within and you will have to Port Forward... Also who do you pay to have the internet on (ISP) ?? |
