![]() Hello wonders of the world. I believe I have tried all that I have read on here, but would sincerely appreciate your help!! Everytime I log on, I get full connection and search capabilities, but upon executing a download, it says “Queued” for a second, then “Connecting…” for a minute, then “Needs more sources..” My Computer Bio: 1. what OS version? (eg: Windows 98, XP,OSX, Vista) Windows XP, SP2 2. What firewalls you have ? I think just the windows one. I have deleted and reinstalled the port on Windows Firewall, as well as uninstalled and reinstalled LW 4.12.11 multiple times. I have AOL installed on the computer, but rarely use it. I use I.E.7 instead. AOL installed McAfee, and by right-clicking it, I cannot find a tab or function that will allow me to add a port there (not sure if that is just a virus checking solution or combined with another firewall). Also have a D-Link DI-514 router installed with plug and play enabled. 3. How much ram ? 1g 4. Hard Disk space available ? 11.2G 5. Connection type (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) ? Cable 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers ? DLink DI-514 Router with a Motorola SB5100 modem 7. Where are you trying to connect from I’m at Home 8. What version,LimeWire & Java,Go to L/W's Help/About L/W, THIS show both LW & Java version.? Limewire 4.12.11 and today’s download of Java 1.6 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider) ? Comcast just ate up Adelphia in our area 10. Do this test click here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ should say 'Your test worked!. What happens ? test worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. n/a 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.? experienced user, first problem started yesterday. I was able to download a few .mP3 files, then it all stopped. It will allow me to download .MOV’s today, but not any .mP3’s that I’ve searched for. 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface ? YES 14. Have you given full permisions for LimeWire to pass through your Firewall ? Windows says yes. D-Link says plug and play enabled. 15. XP users, Please state XP firewall on or off.? ON |
