More likely AOL. I've heard of many people having connection problems with AOL. And especially their security version. I think they control some of the security from their end so you have no control. I think there's much better isp options out there. BTW AOL uses a spyware program that isn't p2p program friendly. It is a poor choice for a spyware program. It can & does affect LW.

As for Proxy, no it may or may not be affecting things. I guess it depends. Some proxies are very good, some not so. Some don't work for p2p. AFAIK you need to try many proxies before you find one that works with p2p sharing.

Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?

nick3849 I would recommend re-installing LW (use offline version), Java & deleting your LW preferences (if you have any.) If you're a windows user then see Fixes for Limewire steps 1 & 2.

laddergal2 can you give us some more details about your set up. Earlier in this thread a page or few back a list of questions will be listed that helps us determine what your problem might be.

I just deleted a large no. of pm's but remember seeing one of yours. I can't recall your set up or exact problems. Can you reiterate.
