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.

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. |

 sachiaiko, If you have the latest version of java then you should be ok to download. Are you getting Limewire from the offical site? It shouldn't be corrupt if you are dling it from the main site. Remove that version you got, delete all the leftover LW folders, then start again from the official site to download the program. You are trying to download the basic version correct? Dont keep reinstalling the version you got because it could have been corrupt. Delete it and startover with a new install. Edited to add: Let the install be placed in a downloads folder in your c drive. That way, you'll be able to find it. www.limewire.com  |

| This is so sad... at least it is for me. I'm not sure if it's even Limewire's fault! You see... my computer went trough a whole recovery so I have none of my old files, and almost none of my old programs. Of course, Limewire was completely erased, but when I'm trying to install it, a messege that says: "Internet Explorer cannot download LimeWireWin. exe from www.9limewire.com. Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later." But I keep trying again later, and it DOES NOT WORK!!! But the thing is, a messege similar to this shows for all the programs I'm trying to redownload, so it might just be my computer. But I still have no idea how to fix it! Somebody... Please.... HELP!!! |

| I see... (said the blind man to the deaf man). I think you're right. But whenever I do try to install Limewire, there is that '9' there, and for restoring my computer, my 10-year-old borther's friend did that while I wasn't home, so when I did get home, this is what happened. So now I'm trying to re-install Java, but guess what? A messege similar to the one I got while installing Limewire shows too! And so I'm still stuck with this computer that is just giving me headaches... and it's supposed to be good, too! And now, it's telling me that I have no memory left on it! Psh! That recovery deleted all the files I actually WANTED! Like Limewire with the hundreds of songs I used to have on it!!!  |
