connection problems
 

I have now sent 3 e-mails to limewire and still no reply. :confused: I had the free download of limewire and all seem to be working fine. I then paid for the service of having faster downloads. Now I can't even connect to get anything downloaded. I have a wall across my map. I have tried everything I can to get rid of it but as yet no joy. Everytime I go into limewire help it keeps coming up with solutions for XP. I don't have XP I have Windows ME and have AVG free virsus program. I had this before and it worked well. I tried to connect today and finally got a very strong signal even with the wall across my map, but it did not last very long. Can somebody please help me, as I am having no joy with limewire even though I have paid for their service. :mad:

Hi Alexmeme, I'm not an expert but I'm going to tell you what I did when I had your problem, If it works let me know... and as of now I haven't had any more problems.
First I went to the Firewall settings (Windows firewall, that is) and added as an exception my Limewire.
Then I went to the antivirus settins (In my case avast!) and did the same thing, and after that I restarted my computer.
- All this was done following directions from one on the threads from this site, but I don't remember which, and that alone was supposed to solve my problem -
Still however I got the wall in front of my world, so I went to another thread and did what it said, which was: go to Limewire Tools/Options/Advanced/Firewall config there you have two options Listening ports and Router Configuration. On Listening ports you shoud have a number, and on Router configuration you should have checked the option Use UPnP so, check the option Manual Port Forward and write there the same number from the 'Listen on Port section'.
Restart your limewire and see if it helped...

Having problems as well!!!
 

I ordered limewire about 3 days ago!!! Everytime I try to look up an artist or video it won't allow me to!!! It says that it's still connecting!!! I don't know much about computers so please guide me on what I need to do!!!

Need a little help
 

How do I find my firewall???

Well, i've done this fix before.

Deleted .limewire and Limewire in Application data about a months ago when i had a problem exactly like this (not loading up at all, limewire load box pops up then disappears and nothing happens) but now i have no .limewire folder in my documents and settings to delete! :bangh:

delete the application data limewire ok, but it still doesn't fix it. Reinstalled limewire and all my java stuff to get the recommended version and nada.

Oh im using Windows XP btw.

Any help would be much appreciated :idea:

Recent connection issues - Windows XP
 

Hi there

I've just started to experience this connection issue today (15.5.07 ) - I tried various posts above ( removing Java updates, deleting the limewire directory etc ) but none worked for me , so I started to look at this issue in greater depth as I am luckily an iT Specialist.

My issue is soley down to a new Windows update that I install on a particular PC only today !

When I removed this "update" Limewire worked immediately !

The Windows update in question was...

Security Update for Windows XP (KB931261)
A security issue has been identified in Universal Plug and Play that could allow an attacker to compromise your Windows-based system and gain control over it.

Try this solution by use of the add/remove option naturally in your Control Panel, should you find like me, having tried the other solutions posted here that LW still doesnt connect

Hope this helps
