![]() Thanks 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Windows 98 2. What firewalls you have? None 3. How much ram? 512 4. Hard Disk space available? 1.5gb 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) broadband 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? clearwire 7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? House 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LW 4.12.11 Java 1.5.0_01 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Eircom 10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? Page not available 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. New problem with pro - lw was running perfect for 6 months 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes Cheers Thebiglad |

![]() I have to go now (it's 6.00am in OZ and I have a few things to do) but I will get back to you in a few hours ![]() In the mean time you can update your Java as the one you are running is out of date... Go to Add/Remove programs and uninstall it and then download the offline JRE version from this link (it's the 5th one down)... http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
