Hi kitkat - Please read the sticky threads at the top of page 1
your problem/answer could be in one of these -- the sticky
threads are in red

sticky If LW will not connect

sticky system details

sticky connection problems-look here before posting

If this doesn't help you - try this:- (it fixed my limewire connection 2 days ago)
it's very similar to the sticky "if LW will not connect" the only difference is renaming the
gnutella.net.net file to gnutella.net -- so start here:-


[1] Open windows explorer
select Tools à Folder Options à View à Show hidden files and folders.

[2] In windows explorer look for the Limewire Folder – go here:-
c:\documents and settings\username\applications data\limewire

[3] Ensure that limewire is off -
now open the .limewire folder and look for and delete the gnutella.net file –


now download a new version from (here) it will be named gnutella.net.net
and save it to your desktop

[4] Now drag the new gnutella.net.net file into the limewire folder.

[5] Close the LW Folder and start up Limewire – if it still doesn’t connect go back
into the limewire folder and rename the new downloaded gnutella.net.net file to gnutella.net
(ensure that LW is off before you do this)

[6] Close the LW Folder and start up LW again – hopefully your problem is fixed

Please let us know how you get on
