Limewire is "CURRENTLY" connecting to the network
 

Hello,

When I downloaded Limewire for the first time, it would let me search and download quickly and very well.

However, now, when I try to search something, it says
"Limewire is currently connect to the network. Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected."

I have never had this problem before, so I am posting here to see if anyone knows the problem. I tried leaving limewire opened without closing it for like a day, but it is still the same message.

Whenever I search, I did not get even 1 result from an hour ago, and still not getting anything.

I have read the stickies, but could not find anything wrong.

Please help,
Thanks!

well sometimes that happens to me and i dont know why but mabye in a day it usually workd

I don't think it's working for me. What caused it though, I have never had it before the first time I used it.

Hi Omega
I had the same problem yesterday and fixed it by doing this:-

[1] Open windows explorer
select Tools à Folder Options à View à Show hidden files and folders.

[2] In windows explorer look for the Limewire Folder – go here:-
c:\documents and settings\username\applications data\limewire

[3] Ensure that limewire is off - now
Open the .limewire folder and look for and delete the gnutella.net file –
http://www.imagef1.net.nz/files/LW_g...a.net_file.jpg
now download a new version from (here) it will be named gnutella.net.net and save it to your desktop

[4] Now drag the new gnutella.net.net file into the limewire folder.

[5] Close the LW Folder and start up Limewire – if it still doesn’t connect
go back into the limewire folder and rename the new downloaded gnutella.net.net
file to gnutella.net. (ensure that LW is off before you do this)

[6] Close the LW Folder and start up LW again – hopefully your problem is fixed

Please let us know how you get on
