[FLashRedGT1]

Ever since today i can't connect to limewire. All it says is STARTING CONNECTION and that were it stays. I have to idea what going on. I have been using it for about 2 years now and this is my first problem i'm having with limewire. Does any know what might of cause this problem or if any1 else has the same problem i do.

Can you give us a total description 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 (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.

If you recently updated LW, then please see about the softw firewalls & modem/router NAT firewall answers here Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)
