![]() Looking through the forums, I seem to have the same problem many are having. I connect for a second or two and then it disconnects. I followed the instructions concerning the firewall, but it still doesn't work. I'm on XP. Any easement of my frustrations will be greatly appreciated. |

![]() I`ve a question. If I Try to search for a song or a artist, LW says "there`s no connection to the Internet, but there is definitely a connectio with it. Also the button "You have no connection to the network" is showed, so what can I do ? A few days earlier it worked. |

![]() Evertime you delete the LW preferences called .limewire, LW will create a new set as soon as you open it. It holds info such as about our Tools>Options settings so everytime you delete the prefs you'll need to reset these. You can try: Force IP instructions & sample image within LW. Go to this webite & tell us what happens (it should say test page was successful): http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ You will need to double-check your zone-alarm. It's been known to cause problems & sometimes unpredictable ones for p2p. |

![]() 1. Windows 2000 Professional 2. 768kbps Cable, Cox Communications 3. LimeWire Free Edition, 4.2.6 I've tried everything in this damn forum, and not one helps. Btw, in case it wasn't answered for some people: Windows 98 / ME: Your .limewire folder is in "C:\My Documents" Windows NT 4.0 / 2000 / XP: Your .limewire folder is in "C:\Documents and Settings\Username" |
