Hello all. I have attempted all tips and tricks in the thread so far. I installed Zap's recommended patch, deleted the specified registry entries for LimeWire and everything else I've come across.

I am using Windows XP SP2, ZoneAlarm's firewall, and LimeWire PRO 4.8.1. I am on a personal computer (not at work) that connects via a switch to a satellite dish (deployed soldier in Iraq). LimeWire at one time functioned properly. I've asked our "network administrator" and he says no changes have been made to our network. There weren't any major installations or updates that I remember around the time LimeWire stopped working other than possibly windowsupdate. As stupid as this makes me sound, it just stopped working.

I have tried connecting with LimeWire with ZA turned off. I have added ports in Zone Alarm and XP's fire wall (not being used) for LimeWire and made sure LimeWire was directed through those ports. I have uninstalled and reinstalled LimeWire. I still cannot connect. I am also attaching a screen shot of LimeWire so you can see what the problem looks like. I'm assuming it's what everyone else has been suffering with: LimeWire starts up and attempts to connect to ten servers unsuccessfully over and over again. If you have any more tricks up your sleeve please advise. Thanks for your time.

Shaun
