I see a handful of posters who seem to be missing something & wonder why nobody has responded to their posts. Read the forum description at top of page. We can guess & guess ... like guess that a UFO came between LW & the network. Unless you supply the details specified we cannot help much.

Hey I'm also having trouble connecting to limwire.
I'm at school and it just stopped connecting one day. Everyone elses limewire works fine, so it has nothing to do with the school's LAN connection.
I've turned off my firewalls and virus systems, that doesn't work.
I've reinstalled limewire multiple times, and have deleted all existing limewire applications.
And of course I've tried restarting my computer.

Any ideas?

P.S. I have Vista

Try changing the listening port. Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Firewalls. You could try changing the connection port too. Choose one between 49152 - 65535.

Default What is The Directory for Windows Vista?
Hi

I'm sort of having Connections problems. It wasn't until I Unistalled The Software and Re-Installed the Software Again, that it shows Full Connection.

Thing is, I think this may be a re-occuring thing.

Does anyone Know Why that happens and What can be done to resolve it, so I don't have to keep unistalling and reinstalling everytime I want to Use LW?

Also, What is the Directory for Windows Vista?

Thanx

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!
