1. OS version? XP Home
2. What firewalls you have? Just windows
3. How much ram? 2gb
4. Hard Disk space available? 200gb
5. Connection type? broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? D-Link DSL-504G
7. Where are you trying to connect from? Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? Limewire Pro 4.10.9 (also tried latest free version) and Java 6 Update 1 (freshly re-installed after reading this forum)
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Internode (Australia)
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? Your test worked!!
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Stand Alone. But recently installed uTorrent.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Been using LW for years no problem, problem started last week
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? No, cant even open LW





Not sure if I am in the right place to be honest, as my problem isn't about connecting, but opening LW. I double click the LW icon, I get the splash screen, then nothing. Wont open. Tried reinstalling LW and Java, still nothing. Tried the free version as a fresh install, nothing. Using windows firewall, but it is listed as an exception.

Only thing I can think of is that I installed uTorrent last week.

Any ideas?
