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. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. 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. 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. 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. 10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. 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. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit. 13. 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.

 Nice idea which works for some but not all. Remember LW & FW are very similar & reasons for not connecting may be different ... such as set up reasons including software firewall, router blocking, ISP blocking or shaping, etc. But yes, FW can provide a fresh connection source. Some found after installing FW & connecting with it, then closed it & LW was able to connect.  |

| I thought I'd try this and see if it would work for me, but I can't get anything to happen with FrostWire. I click the menu option to Connect and it does nothing--absolutely no hosts are listed in the Connections view. Does anyone know why it doesn't cycle through hosts and try to connect, even though it says 'Starting Connection' in the bottom left corner? |

| I had the same problem, so I uninstalled FrostWire and reinstalled LimeWire. It seems they have the same problem, which could mean only one thing: something is wrong with the Gnutella network.

| Update to the most recent version of LW. Also, check this post http://www.gnutellaforums.com/306179-post17.html Sometimes LW has the oddest answers to fixing connection issues which also includes Java, in some cases reverting back to Java 1.5_11 even does the trick. |

| I must admit I did post this a bit premature, however i did not have any problem connecting , the problem i had was the lack of sources for download . This lead me back to limewire , started by replacing the gnutella file again ....and now limewire is working again , but i have not tried it today ....Also i am running windows xp .....I read about other issues with vista ......Regardless it is a headache and good luck .... |

| Who said anything about upgrading OS. I was refering to DHT issues. Oh I guess you can't update due to an older system. |

 limewire nor frost wire work I tried the frostwire and am still having the same trouble I was with limewire, it says it's connecting but never does. It stays on the first bar. I used to have cable modem and connected find. Then I switched to verizon dsl with wireless modem. Since the switch I can't connect to limewire. I was so excited when I saw the post about frost wire thinking it would fix my problem, but nope. I've done everything limewire listed. I went into the windows firewall and checked to make sure the site was allowed and opened a port just in case. Nothing has helped and all I can figure is that it's related somehow to the new dsl modem, but I don't know how to fix that.  |
