I cant connect to lime wire I have Net Zero. I have reconfigured the fire wall!
Nothing I do seems to make it connect. I have Limewire Pro

Did you try it with the firewall briefly disabled? What kind of firewall?

Thanks

LimeWire is a good file sharing tool! It sucks!

bye Daniel

I'm having a couple of problems with lime wire myself- but think that i, Nad you, will benefit from some decent help, and people not assuming that everyone knows everythring all the time - some of us we
re bred on windows for goodness sake!

That's nothing, Fiona...
I still 'speak DOS' (A great party-stopper, btw !)

There ARE some people around here who are sympathetic and who actually remember that everything is new to someone at some time... Don't panic, you will get some help which may even be clear and simple...
But, beware... Explaining how to solve problems in the most clear and simple way normally requires far more words !
(It is also worth trying to understand that often when someone does give aid, and starts with the basics, they are met with a tirade declaring that the questioner is NOT a 'newbie' and that they don't like being 'insulted' ! - Ya can't win sometimes !)

Please also observe that there are many, many, many people who post here with precisely the same problems... And there is very often a post in the SAME forum and regularly immediately below their post that explains and answers the problem(s) !!!
This does create a certain degree of 'frustration' amongst the 'regulars' as it's a bit hard to deal with people who cannot be bothered to read ! LOL


Now, your side of the deal !!! - - -

Always include, in your first assistance requesting post, plenty of info on your system, i.e.

Computer type
Operating System
Internet connection type
Other installed programs such as Firewalls or other applications which may affect your connection

And anything else you may think of that could help others to quickly respond to you...

I mean, doesn't exactly pinpoint your problems, does it ???

Hang in there !

Thanks for the very helpful reply - sorry I didn't give details of system- G5 running Panther. Have now sorted problems- mainly links not working- being sober makes a great difference to one's ability to negotiate new territory! (and to spell/type)
I understand that I have had replies from steif - sorry I can't find them- Thanks anyway
