 Defective Limewire (one connection bar)
I've been using Limewire for a while but for the past 3 months, it wouldn’t download or connect for me. It says it is connected (according to the option on from File). I would File>disconnect, wait a minute, and then File>connect but the status of the connection located at the bottom left hand corner would never surpass ONE bar.
When I enter a Search for music, this message pops up: “Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected to the network.” When I press OK, the search will appear but no results are evident and a yellow bar above the search results will read: “Only search results with a [here a picture of a LOCK symbol] are official Limewire communications.”
I’ve tried clicking on any help forums from Limewire, Gnutella, etc. I’ve exited Limewire, tried starting it over; I’ve disabled it, tried redownloading it, updating, checking Java, updating Java, etc.
It used to work perfectly fine and then POOF- it just stopped. I didn’t have the time to address the problem before but since I have, there has been no progress.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
