I have been having problems connecting like everyone else. I tried everything I could find in this forum and other various places around the internet and nothing worked. I finally gave up and tried downloading a spin off of Limewire called Frostwire, and everything works fine..plus you have a "turbo charged" connections without upgrading. Just thought I'd throw that out there. So, if your sick of ****ing around with Limewire try the other one!
