I can conect to the web. My problem is when I start Limewire for the first time, the configuration assistant starts and ask me my language , my conection, ... and at one moment it says that if I have firewall alerts I have to configure my firewall. But I don't have any alerts and my firewall autorizes Limewire. I have also a window that says that limewire is conecting to the server and it seems to load. But it doesn't stop to load and nothing happen. |

Could you make a screeshot of the window and post it here? (Press the button "Print Screen SysRq", which is right above the Enter button of your keyboard, when the LimeWire window gets stuck). Then open MS Paint and click edit>paste. Cut the LW window out of the picture using the rectangle. Then open a new MS Paint document and go to edit>paste. Then save it as a gif or jpg file and then post here agin attaching the picture to your post. But before, try two other things. First, close LW completely and then right click the LW icon on your desktop. Go to Properties>Compatibility and change the Compatibility Mode to Windows NT or Windows 2000. Then try to open LW again. If that doesn't work, uninstall LW via START>Programs>LimeWire>Uninstall. Then download the installer exe for LW that you will find via this link: http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther Install it and see whether that will solve the problem.....

Still not working Umm, I did everything you said, to a "T", but it still didn't work. On the site it also says Windows Offline Installer, so when the first one didn't work, I used that one, but it still didn't work. If LW doesn't work, would you recommend any other music downloaders? This might also be useful information, I'm not sure, but when I go to download it, it says that I have to save it to disk. I don't know why that happens, but whenever I download anything on the computer it says that, even if I don't have a disk in the drive. Don't know if that might help or not! Thanks again. |

With disk it means your Hard Disk Drive (also refered to as HDD). For me it is not comprehendable why you should not be able to download the offline installer onto your HDD.........because that's exactly what you should do. It is always better to install any program using the offline installers rather than the online installation process..... Is there any error message appearing when you try to do so?? If so, could you tell us what it says ??

There isn't an error message that comes up. It just goes to the window where it says to take down the firewalls on your computer, but there is no button or anything to press to go beyond that screen and LW doesn't finish loading. I really don't know what the problem is either. |
