pse cfm that yr mcafee antivirus has no firewall if it has -- disable the windows firewall and make an exception for LW in yr mcafee firewall -- if it hasn't ok -- also pse ck your add/remove programs to see that you only have 1 version of java script -- if more than one delete 1 version -- keep the most updated version -- now in Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes -- let us know how you get on
