Hi
I recently restarted my computer so its brand new and I had limewire on it before. I've now installed limewire again to my computer but it wont connect. I've done all of the instructions to my settings *eg,adding the IP and UDP information* but it still wont connect. im on windows xp aswell. Does anyone have any ideas for me please as this is frustrating me. Thanks |

Installation of Sp2 WILL change your settings: When LW is open, click Tools->Options & go to Bug report & click for an example. In the window that appears scroll down to the part that says: "Recieved incoming this session". If it says 'True' then LW has no problem with firewall, if 'False" then you do!!! Post back your results 'after' updting your Java!

That means you'll need to allow both LW & java to pass thru! Do you know how to do that? As you would normally allow 'anything' to pass in the options. Do a search on the forum for 'sp2' or 'service pack'. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/search.php?s= or alternatively see: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=26886
