connecting to network problems
 

can anyone help me?? ive had LM before and it worked fine but i had to do a system recovery n lost it, i have installed LM again but now everytime i try to search for something this message pops up "limewire is connecting to your network, your search result may not return many results to you are fully connected" it doesnt matter how long i wait in between searches it still comes up n dont know what to do!! any help at all would be amazin!!

Make sure that you're only using 1 software firewall (more than 1 will cause problems) & that LW's being allowed through it.

Try the advice here: all of a sudden will not connect (a fix to try)
Start off by deleting LW's preferences folder & changing Java versions.
You'll know if you've deleted the preferences folder properly...when you start LW, you'll go through the setup wizard again & all the settings within LW's options will have changed.
If you get confused with deleting the preferences folder, have a look at this post (Windows XP).

Problems Connecting
 

First time user, so hello to all!
I am a very naive user. But I do not appear to be connecting I have never received any results from searches. I appear to have uploaded shareable files from my PC, but cannot confirm that! Naive not quite the word. Can anyone help?
