Help with connection
When ever I open lime wire 4.0.5 it says
Error Your machine does not appear to have an active internet connetion or a firewall is blocking LimeWire from accessing the internet. Im on my home computer i have satelite internet and windows 98 I didnt have this problem up until a few days ago. Does any one know how I can get around this, any help is appreciated. thanx

Baller says that he has Windoze 98 so no built-in firewalls like XP. Any other firewalls maybe?
As for gaz, does your entire connection drop or just LW?

Uhh, no. I don't think a firewall would disconnect you from the net completely, just limit what you can do. Configure the firewall to permit LW to connect (read the FAQs or run a search for firewall issues in these forums) and try launching LW again.
