These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed.

If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply.

Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 My name is Nick and I need some help (general LW questions) hi... i scrubbed this list of help items after signing up and browsing some topics.. there is still alot i dont understand.. cuz im new and hope someone might clarify things. Hi. I need some help with a lot of questions I have about limewire. I tried perusing to find some answers but am easily confused due to my adult adhd. It really is a disease! J I am using dsl to connect to limewire pro 4.18. I have Norton and webroot anit-virus, anit-spyware. If anyone would be so kind to assist me, I really appreciate it. I’m new to this and don’t quite understand. ?Is it possible that there is interference between upload/download between utorrent and limewire when I run them both simultaneously? What does bandwidth do in regards to setting it at 100% or lower? Is there an optimum setting? Is it true the more files I share in limewire, the more access to files I will have from other users? How do I make more files available to people? My lime will say not responding in the top bar of the window but files will still be downloading, why? Always always always.. needs more sources! Where do I get them? I have changed my filter criteria to no avail. In my saved files in my library, sometime something will get through that has no preview, flashes all over the bottom of the playlist, and when I try to delete it say unable to delete because it is in use. This is a nuisance. I can only delete it after rebooting. What is it and how to I get rid of that happening? Again, I would really appreciate help in my many questions. I’d be happy to exchange information on dental hygiene, applying a tourniquet, or small boat handling, or jokes you should never tell complete strangers, if your interested. I am not completely useless at my computer, I’m pretty good at msn spades and backgammon.. J Please assist… Please!  |

 Hi Nick, If you're running both LW & uTorrent then you'll be sharing your bandwidth between the two - so your downloads & uploads won't be as fast as they could be if you were running just one app at a time. I don't run the 2 together. If you desperately want to run both at once, make sure that their ports are different numbers. But be prepared to see slow speeds. Check out this thread (the first few posts by murasame) for tips about how to configure your bandwidth & other settings: A few things to consider while configuring Limewire for optimal performance... There's an option within LW 4 where you can choose not to share with people if they're sharing less than a certain number of files. To be honest, I don't know if this feature has ever worked properly. I've browsed people uploading from me who were sharing only a couple of files - and at the time I had my LW set to share with people who were sharing more than 10 files. Sharing files can make a difference to how successfully you can download, but I don't think the number of shares makes much difference. If you want to make more files available to people, check out this link: How to Share Folders (click on link) If LW's not responding on your computer but is still open (ie it hasn't shut down), the connection to the person that you're downloading a file from can remain. So the download can continue. I don't know anything about LW's behaviour when it's deemed not responding, so I don't know how long it would take for a download to fizzle out... somebody else here might know. Files that always need more sources are likely fake files. Check out the links below for info about these. Fake files showing up in search results How to use Bitzi Virus thread: Typical virus spam file sizes - Make a note of them (click on blue link to see) How to find music(tips for movies, too) For files that are hard to delete, check out the thread below. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/337928-post2.html Don't forget to use the forum search (button at the top of the page between 'New Posts' & 'Quick Links'). Most info that you need can be found using a search  |

| Yeah running two programs of this sort will not only make each run very slow, it'll slow down your whole computer. On an other point, it may be me personally but I hated Norton when I had it, it behaved like spyware some times. And if you un-instal it, it's still there on the hard drive like a dead body no one wants hanging around  I now use Avast!, on it's own. It'svery good, is constanly up dated for new viruses, doesnt slow anything down AND it FREE!  |

| I have CCleaner and good it is to, also BeClean (another freebee  ) which I leave on my desktop for quick cleaning (3 seconds or so), then there's the mighty TuneUp Utilites, but that is for many other things aswell.But even these dont completely clear the Norton stuff, you need a thing called the Norton Removal Machine, that works, even if does sound like the title of a hard rock song  (by the Cult?)Still. I swear by Avast! for Internet protection, it even talks!!!!!!!!!! Ä |
