Did you download a gnutella.net file & replace the existing one with the one that you just downloaded?

7. If LW still isn't connecting after about 10 minutes, close LW & check in task manager to make sure that it's properly closed. Click on this link zSHARE - gnutella.net That will take you to a file hosting site, where you can download a file named gnutella.net...download this file & save it to your computer. Remember where you saved the file to.

8. Go back to Start > My computer > C drive > Application Data. find the folder named LimeWire & double click on this LimeWire folder to open it. This is the folder that you deleted previously....when LW is started, a new LimeWire folder is created. Once you're inside the LimeWire folder, look for a file named gnutella.net (or it might be named gnutella). Once you've found the file named gnutella.net (or gnutella), delete that file. Don't close any windows, just leave the folder that you're in open.

9. Now find the gnutella.net file that you just downloaded. Copy that & paste it into that LimeWire folder that you have open. You deleted the old gnutella.net file & now you're replacing it with another one. When you've pasted the gnutella.net file into the folder, close all windows that you have open.

10. Restart your computer & then start LW.
If you did that & still can't connect, please give your system details.
