(LimeWire Pro) = (LimeWire Basic) + (a few other constants)
There is usually no bug in basic that is not also part of LimeWire Pro.

Did you check your firewall settings. Some firewalls disallow all outgoing connections of non-trusted programs by default.

Lightbulb connection problems

I have had problems to connect LW since I´ve got it. I tried all advices published. No progress. The darn spot turned red after a second or two and I got message that there was no internet connection (but there was). In the end i restarted the cable modem, the router and the switch - and was connected (???). I run a G€ with MacOs X Panther. Hope this info will savesomeone more from heartbreaking frustration.

Default Frustration!

I have been a LimeWire member for a bit over a month. The first two weeks I couldn't get it to work, then I found the helpful thing about deleting the folder in documents and settings. It worked for one week after that and never since. I am using XP home and have no forewalls up. Please help! it is frustrating paying for a service (although it's cheap) and not getting any use out of it!
