Aol does not rock my casba

[Omnilordxvi]

odd problem myself. I have the newest version of aol. I'm not running a firewall. I have the latest version of XP home. heres the problem.

When I attempt to do a search the search goes no where. On account that my internet connection drops but stays open for 10 mins keeping me from "end now"ing it. any ideas?

I believe AOL has some type of connection period policy or issue. If there's a certain period of apparent inactivity (keyb'rd/mouse related possibly.) But I don't know much about it.

Did you know XP has its own firewall?

Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?

Do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is the result True/False? If false then there is something at least partially blocking LW's access.

all tests were positive yet the problem prosists. I don't run any firewall. Including windows xp firewall. I deactivated it.

Don't use AOHell. That will solve a lot of your problems.

Maybe you should ask the new 0wn3r for help.

OK let's start from the basics, xcuse if some questions you've already answered.

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much 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.
