Forum Rules

Support Forums

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you
LimeWire and FrostWire users need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. 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.

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. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Question UNREGISTERED members?

how come when i first started this forum , i was told that in order to participate in ANY of these forums, i would HAVE TO REGISTER? obviously that isn't the case because it seems the ONLY people out there using these forums are 89% UNREGISTERED!!! half of them have more to offer than some of the moderators/developers! GO FIGURE! what really burns me up is that NOBODY takes the time to explain or help anyone having real problems with limewire in these forums. the threads are read dozens of times but never answered, meanwhile you got all these UNREGISTERED people discussing all this "way over my head" gnutella stuff so you KNOW they could've probably helped a few people with their giant "gnutella gnowledge" but GNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, generally any problem you could have has already been experienced by other people, so it would be advisable to take some time and check if it hasn't been posted yet. Of course, that does not mean your post should not be replied. Everybody helps with what each of us can, that's the idea of these forums.

I'm not an experienced user of Limewire either, but I am willing to help whenever I can.

Hi!

Lw uses the same port for incoming and outgoing connections...

You can change this under tools/options/advanced/port...

the standard port for all Gnutella clients is 6346!

Note:

I am using 1.9 so the path can be different...

Good luck!

I think you need to write in this thread what exactly is happening when you you are prompted to specify a port - at what point.

As much information as possible, then if TruStar (who has a better memory than me) comes on he will have a better chance of seeing what is wrong
ok-sometimes, after the search results appear on my screen and i begin to highlight an item, as soon as i hit "download any" an error message screen comes up with a whole bunch of gobbledy-goo under a general message that reads "cannot find port..(yadda,yadda) specify incoming port. if i try to download anything off of that page of search results, the same thing happens. sometimes there will be one or two selections that actually work, but , for the most part, every time i hit "download" that error message happens. i'll try to remember more of the error message the next time it happens or i'll copy it to a post so you can see.

Hi mlledes!

I think I know what your problem is.
LimeWire 1.6x is notorious for gnet connection problems and incoming port # errors. These errors were, for the most part, the result of java 1.1 vs 1.3.1 Java Run Time Enviroment conflicts within the LimeWire software. There was a link to a temporary patched version, but this has since been taken down (Version 1.6 is a bit old). If you don't mind downloading a newer version, the problem has been fixed in 1.7 and above. I recommend LimeWire 1.7c. It doesn't have any ads or spyware, like 1.8 and 1.9 do (please, no flaming here about this - start a new thread if you want to). Here's the link:

http://limewire.gnutelliums.com/1.7c

To download the newest version, go to;

http://www.limewire.com/index.jsp/download

Greetings,

what's flaming?
like i said, i downloaded 1.7 but i'm not sure i got the right one for my OS. i haven't installed it yet because i wanted someone to tell me if i got the right version first. the files read:

limewirewin1
limewirewinNovm
i am using windows ME.
any help is mucho appreciated!

Default FLAMING definition

Here's a little explanation:

There are other people who are reading this thread, and a common thing to argue and fight about, or flame, is whether or not LimeWire contains spyware. Whenever there are mentions of it on the forums, people tend to get riled up too quickly, and before you know it, people are flaming. I said "(please, no flaming here about this - start a new thread if you want to)" because I did not want people posting about this topic. If they wished to do so, I wanted them to do it on another thread.

:-)

So, this was not directed towards you, but to other people reading on the forum. Sorry I didn't make that clear before.

You should download the LimeWireWin.exe file:

Click HERE to download this file.

Did this help? Feel free to ask any more questions you may have!

:-)

P.S. There are numerous spyware discussions currently going on in the forums. Here's the link to a web site that gives info about spyware:
