yeah thats the file i was looking for. i did check the stickies out and other peoples threads, cause there seems to be alot of people with connection issues with limewire and alot of them seem to come up with the same problem. but i guess i missed that post with info about that file.

its funny yesterday after work, not even thinking i opened limewire and it connected fine and i was searching and coming up with results, and then i remembered it wasn't connecting before. so maybe my pc was just acting up or something. works fine tonight also. so i guess i'll just cross my fingers.

thanks anyway for finding it.
