try this first, dlete all versions of limewire on your computer, be sure to check for hidden files (could be stored under roaming) and delete those too. once you have removed limewire completely, go to Download LimeWire, LimeWire 4.16.3 Download where you can download version 4.16.3 of limewire. once you download it, your bars will go from one to five and your connection will be very strong. hope this helps cuz it worked for me

Talking connection probs solved

I am not an expert but in sheer frustration and...after following all the tips and suggestions on how to resolve the connection problems, I spat the dummy and deleted the whole limewire file found in my (user name, app data, roamng, limewire ,)file, Yep the whole file. I then restarted limewire and did a search and off she went. I almost jumped off my seat with exitement. Never realised how much I love limewire. I hope this helps some others out there.Cheers guys

We do not have ESP. The forum rules state to supply these details: System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) if you have a connection problem. Does this suggest you did not bother to read the forum rules before, during & after your registration to the forums but before your first post (the forum rules stare you in the face at the top of any forum page you see during those times)? We cannot help people at all without those details.
