![]() I recently had my hard drive swapped out... same OS, same anti virus software (McAfee suite), same firewall settings as before, but now LW won't connect. Here's my 1. OS version? Windows XP SP2 2. What firewalls you have? McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.0.0 3. How much ram? 512mB 4. Hard Disk space available? 50ish GB 5. Connection type? Cable (Charter is my ISP) 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Modem: Motorola SB5101 SURFboard cable modem. Router: Netgear 108Mbps Wireless Firewall Router WGT624 v3 7. Where are you trying to connect from? Home 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LimeWire: 4.10.5 Pro Java: 1.4.2 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Charter - it worked as recently as 1 week ago. 10. 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? It works 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? No 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem - worked fine until the hard drive swap-out (and basically a reinstallation of the OS) 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? yes - and I've created a windows firewall exception. |
