Up to about a month ago we enjoyed limeware on two of our computers which are linked by wireless. Never a problem with the downloads. The problem we first had with downloads coincided with obtaining a new router. Seemed likely therefore that the Netgear G could be the problem with its firewall. So I have gone through and added Gnutella to my network options as Limeware mention. Then disabled my firewall to see if it helps, then even took out my router and ran the cable direct via the surf board modem to the computer. Removing the potential router firewall problem. STILL it won't download.
Reading the forum information it suggests getting into "options" "view" "popups" and check the "revert to deafult" button. Well firstly it will not retain this check setting. If I click accept it dissapears and if I click ok, when bringing up the window again it isn't checked. However if I uncheck the license notice under the searching category Limeware seemed to want to reinstall. Then after clicking finish it says (new error box) that it can't connect to the iternet. I have a Dell Dimension 2400 with cox high speed cable. Can't figure out what has changed with Limeware and this computer. Help anyone!

Did you fix your problem? I found your post in the wrong forum section which is probably why it didn't get answered. For a start, I'd delete your LW preferences & try again. It might be worth updating your LW version. Get back to us if still problems. I can tell you that "some" users get blocked by Cox. Once they find out you're using p2p programs.
