These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. 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.

There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. 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. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. 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. |

| Try opening your task manager(Ctrl+Alt+Delete), and see if it's listed under Processes. If it is, right click on it and end the process. Then try reinstalling. The proper way to uninstall LW is by going to C:\Program Files\LimeWire\Uninstall.exe. Double click Uninstall.exe. Don't go through the Add or Remove Programs Control Panel. Where you having any problems with it that made you want to uninstall it, like it opening up on it's own? If so, that's caused by a virus. See: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...tml#post288817

| I had a pretty up to date version of Limewire Pro...4.14 or so...all paid for and working just fine...but I too succumbed to the update nagger.. and I had the same thing happen...lost all my downloads, everything in my library ..I went through the same as you with error messages.. I finally downloaded an earlier version of pro.. 4.12.6..but what I finally got was NOT the PRO version 4.14.10 When I tried to log in to upgrade through Limewire, I get a message telling my e mail address doesn't exist. I only ever use two and I tried both and both were rejected. I feel a little ripped off because now I will have to PAY for a new Limewire Pro unless I can somehow retrieve my information from Limewire. They seem unreachable and untouchable. |

| This update thingy is causing havoc for lots of people at the moment. We don't work for LW & can't explain why these update prompts have suddenly started. You may or may not be able to redownload Pro, depending on when you bought the app & who you bought it from. Read the post below & see if that makes things any clearer. ATTENTION: LW Pro users!! Update info!! You could try posting at this other forum & see if any of the LW developers can shed some light on the situation. LimeWire Forums - Powered by vBulletin If you lost everything in your library, I'd say that your saved folder had been changed from the default location. By default, Windows users' files are saved to C:\Documents and Settings\username\Shared. This is a safe location & saved files won't be effected if LW is removed If people aren't careful with where they save to (eg saving to somewhere within LW's program files) then they stand the chance of losing their files if LW's removed.

| Try uninstalling limewire via Start > All programs > Limewire/Uninstaller.. Don't use the Add/Remove programs to do this.... Use your computer's search to look for all files & folders with limewire in the name. If you can't delete them, reboot into safe mode & then try. If they still won't delete, try one of the tools here... Incomplete Download File won't delete at all. Then re-install limewire using the offline installer...To find the offline installer, use the link below > cancel the installer window when it pop's up and then select the offline installer link... Lime Wire » Download LimeWire If limewire still wont start up for you once you have the new install try uninstalling all versions of Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.11 offline version.... Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11 Let me know how you go with those steps...
