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. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. 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. |

Problem Installing LimewirePro I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me with my problem installing limewirePro and the basic version! I am so frustrated right now.... I tried to install the basic version first and it went through the process and then when the dialog box came up to either run it or save i clicked on run, the box fo limewire would show up on the screen but it wouldnt load or anything. So i kept trying to install it and it would say that i need to close limewire out in my system tray (which i dont know where that is). So i uninstalled it from my pc and purchased limewirePro and it was doing the same thing. Now that i purchased it my dad erased it from the computer so now i dont have LimewirePro or the basic version and i cant get technical support for pro because its saying that i didnt purchase it. If anyone knows anything about this or knows how to get in contact with anyone can you please let me know.... This is the message that it gave me when i tried installing the program. Hopefully it helps.. ~Thank you ~ LimeWire version 4.9.27 Java version 1.4.2_03 from Sun Microsystems Inc.

If you can run a stack trace it would seem to me you would know where the system tray is. But anywho......ctrl/alt/del.....Task Manager. Applications...is LimeWire Listed?? Processess...Is LimeWire Listed. If listed, end task. Perform search (Right click MY COMPUTER) for LimeWire. Delete entries. Go to your mailbox and get your email from LimeWire. There is your page for PRO> If Not go to http://www.limewire.com and get the basic. Anything goes wrong from there ask your DAD for help. He may not want you on here. deacon72 A father of 5. |

Thank you very much deacon72 for replying and helping me. i did do what you told me to do and it worked i got Limewire basic and Limewire Pro off of my computer but i went to my mailbox and went to the link that they had gave me. It is still doing the same thing. After i downloaded it and went to task manager to see if limewire was running it was but it didn't open it was just on my screen. I've also tried the basic version to it did the same thing. On the email that i got from limewire it said that sometimes Aol has problems installing Limewire and to try to install it with Internet Explorer which i did but it still does the same thing. My dad by the way is computer stupid! lol. I'm on the computer more then him. He's the one always asking me to help him.... I don't know if you had this problem before or if your just really good with computers but i could use your help if you could.... Thanks again for helping me i appreciate it..... |

Try saving it to your computer first then installing it. If that doesn't work you may have to manually install java then install LimeWire. You can get java at the link below. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=36420 Please post back here and let us know if it worked |
