Did you replace the gnutella file in the LW preferences folder?

Default Windows Vista
I just bought a brand new computer, and it has windows vista, which I think is LAME.

Anyway, it won't even let me open my documents and settings folder to try this. It just says access denied.

Any help?

It works one day and then you shut it down and it will not work. Is anyone have a solution that will work for people who want change in this work like Obama who looks like he will win so can he fix our problem with linewire?

OS X:
/Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire

Windows:
C:/Documents And Settings/your_username/.limewire



Linux:
~/.limewire

Please shutdown any instance of LimeWire you may have running, delete the whole directory, and then restart LimeWire. You should be able to connect.

I'd love to hear how this works for everyone.

Thanks!

Unhappy
I have never had limewire installed. I installed today, & can't connect. Why would I need to do any trouble shooting?!?! Sounds like the program doesn't work. I installed from http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe

HELP! as it searches for HOURS for one song.

Try the fixes in the thread below (start off by replacing the gnutella.net file). If nothing there helps, please post back with your system details.
