I Never had problems with connecting. Now I get one green bar at that's it. No connection. I used to be able to connect at work (T1), on my verizon wireless card, and at home via cable modem.

I upgraded from Limewire 4.8.1 to Limewire 4.12.11, hoping that was the problem, but it still doesn't work. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled Limewire 4.12.11 twice.

I recently downloaded Norton 360, but I spent half the day on the phone with them and they had me remove the program from my computer and it still wouldn't work. Windows firewall is also disabled.

The only thing I can think of is that I tried installing a wireless linksys system at home a few days back, but disconnected it and returned it because I didn't like the way it worked. It seems since then...nothing.

Any help would be appreciated!!
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98): XP Professional
2. What firewalls you have? Norton 360
3. How much ram? 512 MB
4. Hard Disk space available? 27.6 GB

5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Dosen't work on any connection, I use T1 (work), Verizon Wirelss Card (on-the-go), & Cable (home).

8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have?
LW = 4.12.11 (didn't work with 4.8.1 either).
Java = 1.5.0_02

Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)?
[B******?, Verizon Wireless Card, Optimum online at home (they told me they aren't blocking LW).[/B]
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. Not that I am aware of.

12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I am experienced user.

13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes, even when my Windows XP & Norton 360 are diabled.

Try uninstalling your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.12 offline version....(4th one down)
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

Also try deleting your preference folder...

I also will need to know what the make and model number of your modem/router is..
Optimum Online are known for their shaping of p2p...
