| Have you tried deleting the '.limewire' folder while LW is shut down? I was having the same problem and this is what ended up working for me. |

| People might not have a prefs folder named .limewire - depending on which versions of LW they've had installed. The prefs folder can also be named LimeWire & can be found within the hidden (by default) Application Data folder. See skyliner's 'If Limewire Will Not Connect' link for more info. |

| Birdy - Thank You Thank you. I have 3 computers and all of them have LW and all would not connect to the network. I spent days to figure out why. The simple thing to do was to delete the .limewire file (limewire preferences) in the hidden folders area of my computers. Your instructions to do so was very easy to understand. All my computers are working fine now. Thanks Again! Post up these instructions again so that others can resolve this issue before they start to delete their firewall and change those settings around.
