Sorry, but you were scammed. The official site doesn't use Clickbank or Paypal & has never offered a lifetime subscription. Did you pay for LW Pro? LW basic is free.
It's probably too late to get your transaction reversed or get a refund, but you'd need to contact your bank/credit card company & ask them about that.

Did you replace your gnutella.net folder? After you deleted the preferences folder, did you have to go through LW's setup wizard again?

Could you please provide your system details? The connection help thread that I asked you to go through in post #2 has info about the details that we need.
