yes its me again
ww asked me to write a new thread explaining all
here it is
first, i wasnt connecting at all
i got the "limewire cannot connect" type message
so, i tried the preference file delete thing which worked for a day but then the next time i used limewire, it only went on one green bar. I have changed my java, I have completely wiped limewire off my computer and reinstalled it, i have done the preference file thing looooods of times. With no success.
