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 You've been royally scammed

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!

Default 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
