Problem Connecting To Limewire...
 

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!

Well I only downloaded Java last night...so im guessin I do have the latest java

I followed your instructions and couldnt even find "Recieved incoming this session"!

ok....i just downloaded Java 5.0 hopefully this is the new one?!

Hi again!
Yup i've just downloaded the lastest Java *5.0* and Limewire still doesnt connect :confused:

yeah sorry jus fount the incoming fing and yup it says 'false'

See Tools-Options-Bug Reports

yeah ok i just done that :)
And yeah it does say false

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 or alternatively see: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=26886
