Default re connection

i am new to this to but the soundest advice would be to go to the homepage and make sure you have the up to date version and have you tried checking your firewall see instructions here

Thumbs up solved connection problems

ok so i know this is obvious but it worked for me.
open limewire
go to help
click using limewire
click on help for the version you have
click on the lost lw or need update (NOT ON THE ENTER EMAIL FOR SUPPORT)
fill in email and click submit
click on the system you are running and step by step instructions come up. you may find it easier to print them out so you can go through it without moving windows out of the way.
THIS WORKED FOR ME HOPE IT WORKS FOR YOU.

Madmum, I just came across this thread and would love to know, as would others on the forum who are not pro users, HOW you solved the problem ... If you can remember
