Default help with connection and downloading new version

I am having trouble connecting. Start shows one bar and does not improve. Also shows firewall. I have gone to control panel and check that limewire is enabled and port #'s are correct. I have been using Limewire for a while, so this is new.

Also tried to download new version of Limewire Pro. When I type is e-mail address, says it is not valid. Also since I purchased Limewire Pro 4.14.0 a few months ago, do I need to purchase update?

How much did you pay for Pro?

Sometimes when updating software, your firewall needs reconfiguring. ie: take the previous setting off & reset it with LW as an exception.

Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)
