Connection problem, yes I read the threads My Limewire wasn't connecting, so I decided to do the solutions in the threads. I get to the one about replacing the gnutella.net file, and I do everything it says, only there's no Limewire folder in my Applications Data folder. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that didn't fix it. |

Try this:- (you must show all hidden files) [1] Open windows explorer (windows XP SP2) select Tools à select Folder Options à select View à select Show hidden files and folders. [2] In windows explorer look for the Limewire Folder – go here:- c:\documents and settings\username\applications data\LimeWire (or) c:\documents and settings\username\limewire [3] Ensure that limewire is completely off (check that it isn't in the system tray-bottom right-if it is click on it and select exit) now open the .limewire folder and look for and delete the gnutella.net file (see image below) If you don't find a gnutella.net file dont panic - go to para [4] and cont. http://www.imagef1.net.nz/files/LW_g...1196869679.jpg [4] download a new version from (here) and save it to yr desktop [5] Drag the new gnutella.net file from your desktop into the limewire folder. [6] Close the LW Folder and start up Limewire NOTE: If you are using VISTA you will find the LimeWire folder here:-C:\Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\LimeWire ß(Preference Folder) Click on this link (vista - show hidden files) If this fix doesnt work in Limewire Links below click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes. |
Thank you. That seems to have done the trick. LW is an amazing bit of software but it can be so twitchy at times. |
