Thank you for your help. 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Windows Vista 2. What firewalls you have? Windows firewall and I dont know what else. 12. Is this your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I have been using LimeWire for awhile, however I would not call myself and experienced user. 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes 14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? I dont know. 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall Norton Anti Virus 16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). USA 3. How much ram? 502 MB 4. Hard Disk space available? 63 GB 5. Connection type?

(Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LimeWire Pro Version 4.14.10 9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Gozoe Wireless 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? Your test worked! 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. I am sharing this connection with another laptop. Not sure about details of set up. But the other computer does not show to be behind a firewall and LimeWire works fine on that computer. It is running Windows XP. PLEASE HELP! |
