anyway, i don't see or know where to look for the preferences folder.

so what should i do to try your fix?

uninstall limewire, delete what folders where, and then save the download of 4.16.3 to local disk and reinstall?

i desperately want to rid myself of this stupid brick wall. i'm confused though as to how to replicate what you guys seem to have worked out.

thanks, -mdw
Which OS are you using? For XP the prefs folder is in
C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\LimeWire

Application Data's hidden by default, so you'll need to enable viewing of hidden files & folders to be able to see it (control panel > folder options > view > check the radio button to show hidden files & folders > apply > ok).

Vista users look here C:\Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\LimeWire
See the link below for how to show hidden files & folders & find the prefs folder in Vista.
