I uninstalled and installed again twice (and cleaned registry every time), and restored system. Everything else is running quite right, even LW. It just keeps without connection.

System info: Windows XP Professional, SP3, updated. Intel GLC865, 2GB RAM. McAfee firewall, LW full access thru.

Thanks for all of your help.
I'm having the same problem recently...nothing has changed in my system. Running 4.18.6. I've tried all the options in the guide for connections....no luck.

UPDATE: Got it to work. If you are like me I keep using the latest installer which says it uninstalls old versions. However, I know that nothing really ever uninstalls completely clean. So, I uninstalled Limewire, found every directory and file still on my computer that had limewire....example under Documents and Settings {username} and Program Files and deleted. I then ran my Norton Systemworks reg cleaner and cleaned out all the old Limewire references. I then rebooted. I then installed 4.18.6 "fresh" and left all defaults as-is and ran.....connected to TURBO almost immediately !!!! I'll see if this stays.
