![]() Hi there I was wondering if you could help me! My info to your Questions was as follows. 1. Windows XP SP2 2. Windows Firewall, we have AVG secuirity, but that does not seem to have a firewall 3. 256Mb RAM 4. 62 Gig Available 5. ADSL 6. I don't know what modem it is or what a router is. 7. House 8. LW 4.12.6 9. YRLess solutions (South Africa) 10. Test worked 11. I did install Morpheus, but that also doesn't connect, there are no other computers 12. I have connected a few times in the past, but have only recently started using LW 13. Yes there is a brick wall allthough I made it an exception in the windows firewall settings. Thanks for trying to help!!! Will I ever be able to connect? |

![]() hi im not an expert at this, but i have a solution that might work for you, i got it from one of the limewire developers team. search for a folder "Application Data"(usually in C:/Documents And Settings/user name/Application data) in which u will find a folder of limewire. delete that folder completely, but before you do that make sure you have exited LW and that the tray icon has disappeared. then try installing LW again. hope this works for u |

If it doesn't work, then try to find out the brand & model of your connection device. (A router is usually a modem with options to connect other computers to it also. It acts as a type of hub of a network connecting them to the internet.) What you can try is going to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Advanced>Firewalls & change the listening port to one between 49152 - 65535. Try 64049 & then close & re-open LW. |

![]() yesterday when i tried connecting LW, surprisingly it went up to "Turbo Charged Connection" but even then i wasnt able to download movies though i was succeeded in downloading few mp3s, so whats going on with my LW or Computer?? I tried reinstalling MCAfee firewall and also did port forwarding as they said on portforward.com. can it be due to slow internet speeds, its because at peak hours my internet speed falls really low. |
