Brendan
when you say youve done that do you mean that you deleted the gnutella.net file and replaced it with a new one as per the instructions -- did you also go through all the fixes in (If LW will not connect) in Limewire Links -- pse update me on the limewire version youre using with java 5.0

Download the latest version of Java. Remove All Java versions installed (via Add/Remove Programs) before you install the latest Version. (Download the JRE Offline Installer)try searching again to see how it goes . We seem to have ended up where you first started and if changing the java doesnt work for you I'm fresh out of ideas, I have seen other people with the same problem (http://www.gnutellaforums.com/gettin...eone-help.html) as yourself but they were told that it's possibly a java problem.</p>

Brendan,

If updating the latest java version doesnt fix yr problem have a look at this:-

go to yr limewire icon on yr desktop:-
right click on the LW icon -> properties -> compatibility. For XP, try running in compatibility mode for Win 2000 or NT. For Vista, run in compatibility mode for XP.
