Hey I have been getting connection problems aswell with limewire, ive had it for over a year on my laptop and all of a sudden its just stopped connecting.

Now when i open Limewire it says No internet connection.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with limewire5 but no good there i deleted my prefferences i acessed the options and disabled Ultrapeer, DHT, TLS and OOB, I also checked my norton fire wall and that has always been allowing limewire to do its work.

im running low on ideas what to do its even been effecting my bitorrent considering they run on the same rules.

Try removing all LW rules from within Norton & then add them from scratch.

After you deleted LW's preferences folder, did you have to go through the setup wizard again?

Have you been through the other fixes in this thread (click on link)?: If LW Will Not Connect

Go & find your gnutella.net file... how big is the file?

Please give us your details: System details - help us to help you -> Provide these details when you post!!!

Can't open!!!!
 

I have mac OS 10.4.11. I downloaded a new version of limewire but it won't open or connect. I deleted the old version including the preference setting. I noticed that new version does not install and new preference folder. I am thinking this is the problem. If you think so, how do I restore the preference setting?

I need help.

thanks, tmak

Not opening has nothing to do with Connection problems. I've deleted one of your double-posts already. Please go back & read the forum rules before you feel the 'boot'.

I reread the rules. I don't understand what you mean.

It is not a connection problem. I have tried opening limewire in different places and connections setting. My connection is cable.
It is not firewall problem.
I am in USA. ISP charter communications.

I would really appreciate it if someone can help.

thanks
