Hi
I've tried everything to get the stupid LimeWire working!
I've had no problems untill yesterday.
ok hears what happend, i have xp (which means different user accounts) so i downloaded a new Java cause i was bored and on miniclip and the game police chopper needed a new java. so downloaded that then when i went out, came back went on my account again and downloaded limewire. and realised the connection was only one bar and there was a brick wall in front of the earth icon. so i turned the firewalls of and then searched the internet for answers and here i am.
PLEASE HELP IM GOING insane!
