It seems I am having the same problems as other users. I had Limewire on my old computer, but on this new computer, it will NOT let me download anything.

I am using the same router, ISP, and broadband modem. In addition, here is the requested information you asked for.

1. what OS version? (eg: Windows 98, XP,OSX, Vista) Windows XP SP2
2. What firewalls you have ? Windows
3. How much ram ? 2 GB
4. Hard Disk space available ? 120 GB
5. Connection type (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) ? Cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers ? Motorola SB 5120 modem, D-Link DI604 Ethernet Broadband router
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, apartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.) ? [B******[/B]
8. What version,LimeWire & Java? 4.12.11 for Limewire and 1.5.0.11_11 for Java
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider) ? Time Warner
10. Do this test click here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ should say 'Your test worked!. What happens ? It said YOUR TEST WORKED in bold letters.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.? This is my first time having problems
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface ? Yes
14. Have you given full permisions for LimeWire to pass through your Firewall? My firewall never asked me to give permission to Limewire. Not on this computer, and not on my old computer. I dont think Windows Firewall asks for permission. That might be the problem since I have the brick wall in front of the blue globe.
15. XP users, Please state XP firewall on or off.? XP Firewall is ON.


Please help me. Thanks!
