just tried different versions of Java, tried 6,5,&1 but still not working.
i've just about tried everything , even the change port ,ip addresses that someone wrote about here.
nothings working.
i'm beginnig to think i been blocked by a server or sumthing.
if i cant get this limewire working again im about to throw this pc out the window.
HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP!
iv'e read most of the answers to people connection problems.and tried alot of things out. I dont think its a problem with firewall.because it says limewire has full access allowed.
I usually know wat i'm doing . and have had lots of computer problems before to learn about.but this tops them.
i cant figure out how it has a problem now when it never had a problem b4.
it just looks like the program died.one bar.
I just istalled this version over my Lw pro and it works .I liked the 4.8.1 version but it dont work ,but i guess its better a live limewire than a dead one. Thanks to whoever posted this link.
