I've never been able to use LW at work, ever since I downloaded it, from www.limewire.com. Now, I think I need a techie, for the rest of the things, I can hardly make out! I use my lap top both at home & work: at home, I connect using Sierra card; at work-the ethernet lan cable or whatever. I know both WIndows & Java exist on my m/c, but versions? how does one find out? Without eanbling Proxy settings over my LAN, Firefox won't connect! To be clear, I don't want to use Sierra at work.. so, I connect via LAN i.e, Network Connection Settings, yeah?!And My LW Tools>Options> Firewall Config> doesn't have Force IP. I've got a Listening Port Box & a Router Config box, both should be 6346? threadid=32282 didn't make out anything I could follow, you mean, I do steps 1to 9?!
