please help with connection problem
 

I have had lime wire for about a week now and i still havent been able to connect it always says connected but never connected and i have tried everything.. checking for firewalls under network connections and none are active and then trying the jar thing and then tried deleting the directory file but it is still the same!!! can someone please help me figure this out...
THANK YOU

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version,
2. What firewalls you have,
3. ram, 4. HDD space available,
5. Connection type,
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers,
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?

I have Windows XP.
I dont have any Firewall enabled and if i enabled it it would be with Windows. I have Mcafee virus scan but it does not have a firewall. I also have AOL 9.0 but it doesnt have a firewall. My laptop is always connected to DSL Cable. I connect from school.
Even when I was connected to dial up at home it wouldnt work and the modem would be Agere Systems AC'97 Modem...

Windows XP has its own firewall. McAffee has its own firewall. And schools tend to block p2p (but not all.) And many people hve issues with AOL & LW.

Configuring firewalls for LW: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml

Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say ‘Test Page was a Success’. What happens when you go there?

You could try some fixes: Fixes for Limewire

When i click on the browser for your simple test it says page not found.

I already tried before the configurations for firewalls and i did the steps to fix limewire.. is there anythign else left?
