also forgot to say that i followed the Zone alarm FW instructions, ran javaw.exe, and it did nothing in ZA.
Added it manually no luck, disabled the firewall and enabled the windows xp sp2 on. added the port as described on the webite, still no luck.
Any ideas??

limewire not connecting?!?!?
 
When u uninstall limewire make sure the limewire.exe isn't running in the processes under taskmanager anymore.
Otherwise it won't uninstall the .jar files in ur limewire folder.
In taskmanager/processes click on the limewire.exe and end process, then check ur limewire folder and delete everything that is in there manually.
Now reinstall ur limewire.
Another option is to get ur hands on the StubInstaller.exe, ececute the stubinstaller, let it dl the files and install, after install start lm and check the connection it should be running smoothly.
when u uninstall the limewire again, (make sure lm folder is empty) and reinstall ur own limewire it should be back to normal.

lime wire app opens fine it must be sumthen to do with zone alarm.
using xpsp2 firewall i did the udp fix on my lan connection- no good.
stop xp firewall, start zonealarm, and run javaw.exe to allow it in my programs in ZA. It doesnt seem to do anything and the exe doesnt seem to even start its process. then i manually add it.
still does nothing???

hey, how r u doing today, i did what u say i could do to ffix limewire, and is not working. This is the messege:

"Limewire was unable to initialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking limewire's access to the internet or loopback connection on the local machine. Please allow Limewire access to the internet and restart limewire."

I am running windows vista, can u help me with this problem

This is the first time I've posted. I am also having trouble with connecting. It is showing that my problem is firewall, however, I disabled the firewall completely and still couldn't connect. Do I go to control panel and then go to add/remove programs, to delete documents(the place where you suggested)? Or do I delete the Limewire program and re-install? thanks.
