didnt help me at all.

Your solution works best...

After adding: TCP UDP Port 6346 Allow to my firewall...
Then.... LimeWire/Tools/Options/Advanced/Firewall Config/...set Listening Port to 6346 + Manual Port Forward 6346

Voila....worked for the very first time.... after 20 tries....blah...blah...blah..

THANKYOU

what version of limewire do you have

Limewire 4.12.3... latest version

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?

And you tried deleting LW's preferences folder whilst LW was closed? Instructions: Fixes for Limewire

Hi,
I clicked on the link above and I got the message "Your test worked!". What does that mean? I downloaded the latest version of TOR and I setup Limewire to connect thru TOR but I get the following log message in TOR :

Quote:

Aug 24 10:52:23.531 [warn] fetch_from_buf_socks(): Your application (using socks4 on port 27500) is giving Tor only an IP address. Applications that do DNS resolves themselves may leak information. Consider using Socks4A (e.g. via privoxy or socat) instead.

So then I downloaded Privoxy and added the line,
forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 . to the main cofig file and in the Proxy configuration of Limewire I selected the HTTP proxy option and used 'localhost' as the proxy server and 8118 as the port but nothing happened!?!

Where am I going wrong??
