For those with Java errors - what is the error?

Is everybody connected to the internet *before* they try to start LimeWire?

Are you installing to the default location?

If so - have you looked in Program Files\LimeWire\"version number"? Do you have an incomplete and a shared folder there?

What internet connection do you have?
Do you have a firewall or router?
Any other software running?
Have you tried the gnutella OK test?

Registered users have a direct email address they can use for support - there is no official LimeWire presence in here.

Gnutella Test:
In WindowsXP: Go to the start menu and select run (or hold down the window key (usually between Ctrl and ALT on the left of the keyboard) and press R

type in "CMD" without the quotes in the box. Press return. You should have a DOS box (well... something that looks like a DOS box anyway).

type in:
telnet router4.limewire.com 6346

and press return.

After a moment or two you should see the message "Gnutella OK".

If you don't see this message you have a problem with your connection to the gnutella network - LimeWire won't work.
