I updated my Limewire because it told me I had to, and now I am having trouble starting it up. It keeps freezing up on me and I have to do CTRL ALT DEL.

I have a Dell laptop - Latitude D520

Windows XP Home Edition SP3

Intel core2 CPU
T5500 @1.66GHz
980 MHz, 1.99 GB of RAM

I have about 12 gb free on my hard drive (120 gb total).

Just updated to Limewire 5.516

DSL wireless

no firewalls running

I do have McAfee antivirus installed but the firewall is not turned on

AT&T modem/router

home network

I don't know which version of Java since I can't get Limewire to start up properly.

AT&T is my ISP

port is not blocked

only sharing dsl on home network, sometimes one other user

have used limewire for years, off and on

I don't know what this means: 14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled?

live in the US

nothing has changed aside from updating Limewire

Thanks,

Suzanne
