Slightly - maybe - bizzare connection issue
 

Okay,

I read loads of blurb on how to connect, and after trying god knows how many patches with no lick I used an uninstaller to completely cleanse my old version of LPE from my system and then reinstalled.

And hey-presto, result, connected straight away.

However, going back into limewire second time this evening resulted in return of same issue - ie limewire wont connect.

So it would seem its not a system/patch issue. Its something us. But what? Any ideas?

Slightly - maybe - bizzare connection issue
 

I was on here a few months ago and tried the various patches and suggestions by the moderators.

The only one that works is the the clean uninstall then re-install of LPE. Nut this will work on for this first time is opened.

Then the old will not connect issue resurfaces unless I go through the same process again.:bangh:

SO it does not seem to be a patch/firewall/virus software issue, but something else. But what? Any ideas? I did for good measure download the LOTR March patch and copied to my pref folder but this did not do the trick either.:shoot:

If no one has any ideas does anyone have a link to an older LW edition that is downloadable and works (although when it works LPE would be my pref)

Thanks

OOps, I re-posted this question in a a sightly diff format as I thought it got lost.....bear with me pls!

Have you tried other fixes from this help thread If LW 5 Will Not Connect ?
