Hello,


I am currently running Windows XP and cannot log on to limewire. I am running Norton Anti Virus and hav permitted limewire in the firewall, have added Gnuttela in TCp & UDP and noting has worked. Any help?

Thanks

Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider?
10. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
These details are vital if you want us to find out what your connection problem is.

Tried deleting LW preferences and reinstalling. It didnt work.

1. XP
2. Norton Anti virus
3. Cable modem-Toshiba PCX2500
4. Home
5. Limewire 4.8.1 Java J2SE 1.5.0.20


When I first installed Limewire I was told I need to install java. Thats when i went to java.com to download the above.

I currently have a Gateway and recently the entire hard drive crashed running Windows 98. I had someone rebuild the drive with XP Pro. When I had 98 it ran fine.

Thanks for your help!
