Default Lifetime membership not working

Hello, Some months back I purchased a lifetime membership to Limewire. I have documented evidence of the purchase, user names and passwords. Recently, somthing changed on the Limewire website and I can no longer access Limewire and download music. Limewire no longer recognizes my username and password. I do not want to purchase an upgrade because I already purchased a lifetime membership. Can someone help me fix the Limewire problem so I can get back to the music download membership that I already paid for. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the settings on my PC as nothing as been changed. Thanks....

Default Limewire lifetime membership not working

Thanks for the reply. I did purchase the membership from www.limewire.com. I have all of the documents i.e. credit card purchase and emails to prove the purchase. How can anyone get in touch with a live person at Limewire for help.

Question Limewire

I have been trying to contact Limewire for two weeks now, no return emails,I wanted to re-subscribe and asked a question about something I/d seen in the forum by lotr re-discount for re-subscription,no reply, second, I originally subscribed with an email address,which is still used for forum communication, but Limewire site does NOT now recognise it at all , I had to use a second one for it to work,why is this? In my paranoid mode I might wonder if LW is collecting as much information as possible on clients re court case????Can anyone answer these questions,yours puzzled(As usual),and concerned,

Default Limewire lifetime membership not working

Hello again, I really appreciate your help and I think I'm starting to understand. OK here are the facts: I did purchase something from somebody and was able to download music for a while. Since I'm no longer able to download, what do you I recommend I do? Should I purchase another Limewire membership from thier website i.e. Limewire Pro or what do you recommend ?

The thing we don't get here is why you claim to have bought a Lifetime Membership at www.limewire.com

How much did you pay? Sounds like you have been cleverly scammed

This is from www.limewire.com

edit: Well guess I'm slow at typing today

Well good for future reference anyway

Thanks, I really appreciate your feedback. I'd have to go into my files and get all of the records to see what I paid etc. It may have been over six months ago but I recall there was some verbeig in the agreement that stated lifetime membership which I interpreted as a lifetime of free music. If I again pay for the Pro, how long does this membership last before I have to pay again?

Firstly: This is in no way saying that limewire is not a legit site. In my mind it is. This is more as the right approach to the internet.

NEVER give out too much personal detail on any site, especially regarding P2P

I myself use several different e-mail addresses for various purposes

I have different name, age, occupation etc. for all of them. Which means that anyone who tries to gather info on me will probably be out of luck.

This has to do with many things. SPAM for one. If an address of mine gets comprimised I just stop using it and create a new one with different name, age etc. Because none of them are connected, I don't need to trash all, just the one that has been comprimised.

The internet is not your back yard. Depending on who the recipient of the information is, it may or may noty be used against you in some bad/annoying way.

Always save the installers you get. That way you choose if you want to paid again after the six months are up, or you just keep on using the one you got. In case of a system crash, reformat etc. You still have the choice if you save them.

It might be a good idea to try the free Beta first though and wait a bit before buying Pro. There are many new features and it is not finished yet. Just incase the 6 months are up before all the bugs are sorted.
