All,

In Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes -- Also have a look at this link by LOTR (Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should) if yr problem still remains click on (system details) and fill in as much as you can and post back here

Unhappy Lw Not Connecting!!!

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? My LW was also working fine one day and then wouldnt connect the next. I have tried everything. Reset my firewall settings, uninstalled pro, reinstalled basic then upgraded again to pro in desparation. This is the fourth time I've paid for Pro!! (so much for a one off payment).

Have tried resetting all defaults etc. I'm running on Vista. My neighbour also has LW and hers is working fine.

Please can someone help??

Talking Think it's worked!! Yippee

Went through all the things on your list and it appears that it was the deleting and reinstalling the gnutella file that has made it work. I tried the other bits first ie updating Java and resetting preferences and they didn't help.

I now have a turbo charged connection. Shame i have had to pay again for Pro which is a lot annoying but at last it's working. Can't think what would have happened to corrupt the file as it was fine one day and not the next??

Thanks
