I've done that once before... but I can try again

It worked once after I deleted the pref folder...
It won't connect if I don't delete the pref folder first...

I forgot to tell I also got and use Spybot - Search and Destroy... But I don't think It blocks any programs...

Iv'e had it up and running for about an hour and it wont connect it just keeps saying that in connecting and thats it...ive made it so my firewalls will let it through but the little firewall indicater is still up...what do i do to make it connect?

We will need more info. Please answer the following questions. Thanks
