Well I tried to do everything you suggested....and nothing worked.....it's not my computer.....i think it's a software problem.......i could connect and i redid my system, and then nothing.....i redid my system over and over, trying different things......i even changed the ehternet card, everything was normal in my network settings......went into the routter settings as well...still nothing......thanks for the help....i'll keep checking back here for fixes......

Hi...

Like Matt, my name is Michael. I also have a wireless router - Lynksys. It works fine. I can get my e-mail, go to other sites, etc. I use XP home version. In fact, I had been using and downloading music over a week ago, then my connection with LimeWire wouldn't connect. Now, after following "STICKY's" and BIRDY's" instructions, I still can't connect.

I love the site but I have no idea why this will not "re-connect"???

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Lanita...

Did you ever hear anything? I've been having the same frustration. I had been using LimeWire just fine a little over a week ago... now nothing! It's driving me crazy too, because it's such a good site. Can anyone help on getting "Re-Connected"?

Michael

Michael...hey i know what you mean.....i've been using LimeWire for about 2 years now with no problem....redid my system and nothing...~holding out shaking hands~ i've been going through LimeWire withdrawals....hope they figure it out...because it ain't me or my machine......

Hi Lanita...

I guess Misery loves Company, huh?
Yeah, I don't understand it either... and I guess what I REALLY don't understand, is why the computer gurus at LimeWire aren't hot on the trail? I checked other sites, and can pass this along:
What You Install With Kazaa v 3.2.5(free version)

• <LI class=textSml>Kazaa - this is the main application that lets you search for, download and share files. <LI class=textSml>TopSearch - this displays quality, digitally rights managed files (marked with Gold Icons) in search results. Powered by Altnet. <LI class=textSml>Altnet Peer Points Manager – this is a rewards application for sharing files marked with Gold Icons.

• RX Toolbar - an internet browser toolbar that displays relevant website links in your browser.

I've used it before with great results. I guess I'm holding out a little longer for LimeWire, before I have to uninstall... but "Yes Lineta, there really is a Santa Clause (Kazaa)!"

~smiling~ i used kazaa for years, till the same thing happened to me that LimeWire did......i went over to kazaa when i couldn't connect....what a nightmare...all the adds~n~such....then i tried to do a search and nothing would come up.....it's just strange that LimeWire did the same thing that Kazaa did to me a few years back......i hope that the "gurus" at LimeWire get this stuff figured out....i told my husvand what's the us of having a computer when ya can't do what ya want it to do!!!!! lets hope they get on the ball!!
