It's hidden. So you will need to turn on show all files & folders option in view options in your search window. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...der-vista.html

Make sure the different LW's on your network are not using the same port. ie: go to LW's menu bar, Tools > Options > Advanced > Firewall. And make a note of each. If they are set to use same connection & listening ports, change one to something like 64049. If your software firewall requires a port to be included in its firewall rule, then change it too.

The reason for this is a router will reserve a port for a single user for each single application for each computer. At least I think that rule applies here, not sure, I might be wrong if it's a different account.

desertshi is flying high
Default still not working

I haven't had time to try to fix this until this morning. I did everything that ya'll said. Deleted the pref folder and Limewire kinda reprogramed itself. Well, when it got going the bars at the bottom are the same; all red. So what can I do??? Yes in my Username in the computer everything works fine. But when I switch users and open Limewire under my husbands name, it is all red. Help!!
