The Problem you can try everything But it aint gonna work. See All of your programs connect to the Gnuella Network. Unfortunately They Forgot to warn everyone they have Updated a File Which Is Located in your Limewire Folder. Trying Clicking here and downloading this file And Replacing it with the Old one. gnutella.net. For Windows Xp user Open Run in The start and Type Application Data and it should take you to a windows with other folders. Delete the Exsisting Gnuella.net file and replace it with the new one. When Being instructed to either run or save, Save it into My documents Then copy it into the Limewire Folder. Make sure to delete it out of My Documents and Then Restart Limewire and you should Get a turbo Charged Connection

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program at least 8 times and the same thing happens I get NOTHING... What am I doing wrong?
