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!

Yes My macafee Security Center Has Fire wall and it is set to allow all lime wire Fuctions I Just Dont Know . Wonder if Problem Could Be in Windows service pak 2 partly blocking Lw ???????? I have Striped it out of pc and re installed it it still will not connect to net work. i to have since found out that Isp is not Blocking My cable service . In any way that would cause My Problem On . And every p2p file sharing prograhm i put in my pc will not connect. I have Had these prograhms installed (1) MP 3 Rocket ( 2) Phex ( 3 ) Frostwire ( 4 ) Gnucleus ( 5 )Lime wire ( 6 ) ares all of These will not connect With Exception of ( 7 ) Shareaza when i installed it it Said that windows Xp Ser. Pk 2 Or Some other Environment Was Pairtly BlockingRestricting. Num Of Connections attempted at once. Shareaza will connect to net work But it is so so slow It Took 2 Hr & 42 Min. to download 1 song Just dont know what is wrong I am one that likes to Down load music I have in my lime wire Library 765 songs and other files app 200 or so i am not a free loader so to say just wish i could get it working, Now I have tried Bear Share & I Mesh Where you have to pay monthly fee They connect fine no problem with them. Do not have them installed now but did at one time. Thanks John Wilmoth
