Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1.

Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7.

Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12.

Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply.

Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Please do not update limewire Hi all Yes, tell you one thing today, as I am a limewire basic user with DSL bandwide for more than 1 year. These days there always a shining lines shows my limewire needs to be update. Therefore, I trid to updated to the version 4.12.3, but after installing this new version. I could not finding anything on it. No video, no audio, nothing pop up. At the begining, I guess it's the connetion problem with my network, so I checked out the problem shooting from limewire offical web, but it doesn't help. After hours researching and checking the settings, finally, I decided to reinstall the old version which it works again! Here, I stressed that if you are the limewire basic user, please do not update your program to 4.12.3, stick with your old version is fine. I also suggest if you do not have the old version anymore, you could find it on google easily. Remember, do not update anymore, the old version under 4.12.3 is perfect for your needs. If you have any needs or assistance,please feel free to send me a mail at [edit] Thanks! Cheers Dixon User from China ________________________________________ Edited to comply with the House Rules.

| Ok, so I'm a member of this forum and help people with their Limewire problems, BUT I dont use Limewire give me a break....For one just because you have had troubles installing the latest version of LW, doesn't mean everyone will and if they do they can get some pretty accurate advice from members of this forum on solutions to help them.. Oh and another thing DO NOT ADVISE anyone to google search an older version of limewire, we have enough problems with scam sites offering versions that have been filled with spyware and charge for the basic version.. My suggestion to you would be to do some further research, before shooting off at the mouth.....

| Hey dixon79 thanks for your advise, yes, I did the updated yesterday which drived me crazy that i could not find anything with the new version, so I followed what you suggested here. It really works again, Thanks for sharing that! Btw, Wondering why, if you are not using limewire,please keep silent! You are not qualify to telling the sh*t here! You even don't have a name! So does UK Bob, you are not supposed to judge those newbnies, you are just nobody here. If you want to get more respect here from those newbies. I guess you should contribute something useful to this forum, not just judging & reduced people's motivation to publish something. Your mom doesn't teach you that when you grow up, does she? What a poor guy! HK |

| HK.emma & joytt, WW has given some very good advice in this thread, sure some people may not be happy with one version of LW but don't just go looking for another version using Google!! Just imagine how many infected copies of LW are floating around... nobody wants a virus, do they? Have some respect for the people who give their time to help others out here. |
