 LimeWire will not connect for me anymore I get the message: Limewire was unable to initialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking LimeWire's access to the internet or loopback connections on the local machine. Please allow LimeWire access to the internet and restart LimeWire I recently moved but I dont really understand this because before I moved I was able to connect to LW and I have everything exactly setup how it was at my other house and now Im having problem. I have read just about all the threads on this and have tried everything but nothing has worked (Have disabled windows firewall and the router firewall), I even called my service provider and made sure they allowed p2p which they do. 1. OS version? Windows XP Home Edition 2. What firewalls you have? Windows 3. How much ram? 512 4. Hard Disk space available? over 1G 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Broadband 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Linksys WRT54GS 7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)?town house 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LW 4.12.11 and Java 1.0.5_11 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Atlantic Broadband 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? test worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Yes, sharing w/ a laptop 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem with experienced user 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes Thanks for any help possible  |
