Thank you for the follow up, JJBoo: great link but alas, came into my LW as ?kb size and waiting...........with the seconds countdown. I eliminated all but one download.........and even it didn't respond. Thanks again...maybe it will work for others.

About my "rant" to "GRANDPA" in my previous post....big ooops as I think I read his message on the link that mickjappa sent which is why his message isn't in this thread. Just wanted you to know in case you thought I was completely crazy. Only LW challenged.

Oh yeah, one more thing that I discovered after following the steps listed above---

LW worked fine for about 2 days, then same thing, Connecting............
So, I just followed the steps again and it started working again.
Its kind of frustrating, but at least I am downloading something and not just stuck on Connecting.....

I'm just using this as a temporary fix until something better comes along.


And Mama, my system info is almost the same as yours(if that means anything)

Good luck everyone

Mamakin4,
$60 for FW:eek: You've been royally scammed:blink:

FW's free, just like basic LW. The official site for downloading LW is www.limewire.com
The official site for downloading FW is http://www.frostwire.com

If you paid for FrostWire you have been scammed, FrostWire is free

Call your bank/CC company & report this. Check the 2 links below for more info. Page 5 of the first thread has a list of scam sites.

Membership? - **BEWARE** - Download p2p Clients ONLY Thru Official Sites (click on link)

get your $$$ BACK!!! (music members)

What 'accessories' did you get? Some antispyware? Accelerator? I wouldn't bother using whatever it is...chances are that it's very crappy & will be of little or no use. You could also find that there's associated spy/adware. My advice would be to get the whole lot off your computer!

Bye-Bye LW
 
I gave up on LW and installed Bearshare. Its working great--for now anyway

You can download it for FREE at www. bearshare.com

I still kept my LW installer just in case it decides to start working again.

Take care everyone

Hi - I'm just new here. I just spent a couple of hours going all through the forums trying to find a solution to my problem. You all seem to have the same as I do. I was runing a lower version of LW & had no problems. Upgrade to 4.12.11 and can't download a single thing. I shutoff every firewall, my router, antvirus, and any program that might interfere with my connection. No help at all. I have been working on this for 3 days now. Anyone out there with any help???
XP, & Java is ok. Am desperate!!! Thanks.......manzy
