Connection Problem, Major Ok I have a major connection problem with limewire, i've configured my firewall, and i have taken the test and it said i had passed not only that i also used the purger and it still didnt work Whenever i try to connect it says "Limewire has encountered a problem and needs to close" and i have tried uninstalling it and installing it back again i have windows xp service pack 1 zone alarm 5.5 firewall |
You realise XP has its own firewall don't you. If you're using another firewall then you should disable XP's firewall. 1. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) 2. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? 3. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? 4. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 5. Who is your isp provider? Select a magnet link file from here & tell us how LW behaves: http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml |

How soon after you open LW does it close down? Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire And if this doesn't work, try the other options such as changing LW compatibility to win 2k. If that doesn't do it then uninstall Java & downld the installer to your comp., & then reinstall (after uninstalling Java.) If that doesn't work, uninstall java again & install Java 1.4.2 instead. Link in the above link. ;) Fingers crossed! :D |
thats the thing my limewire doesnt open, as soon as i double click it a message comes up saying "Limewire has encountered a problem and needs to close. sorry for any inconvenience" and it doesn't open and yes i've tried all of that already nothing seems to work |
