Hi Fabion, this is my friends computer we are talking about so I will provide you with the information that I know:

1. Computer Type Dell Desktop 3000
2. Operating system Windows XP
3. Hard Disk 40KB (hope that's right)
4. Norton Anti Virus comes with the Dell Package
5. Don't know about the Java version. We did not download but I thought it automatically downloaded with the Limewire. Where can I check this (hope you don't think I'm thick but although I am fairly computer literate, I am not an advanced user.
6. Limewire 4.8.1. (latest downloaded only yesterday)
7. Connection ADSL
8. Connecting from Home


Thanks so much for taking the time to reply.

Hope you can help.
