0kbps D/L and "Waiting for stable Connection"
 
Windows XP Home Version 2003 RAM: 248MBHDD: 12GbCPU... I do have an active firewall but Limewire is on my allow list....I use wildblue satellite as my ISP and also their Anti-Virus proggie. Ive never had this problem with Limewire before but starting today my downloads have been @ 0kbps and my downloads keep saying "waiting for stable connection"..... My connection seems to be fine although the last few days they've only been @ max 8kbps........ Its really weird, Ive checked all my Limewire settings as well as my pc connection settings and nothing is fixing this problem..... Ive ran my anti-virus and spyware proggies and nothing is showing up.......I also saw another thread that was posted and it said something about deleting my limewire preferences folder @ /users/your-name/limewire, I went to go try that and I dont even have a preferences folder in my limewire folder, thats weird too......... This is driving me nuts, as u can see its 3am my time and Im racking my brain to figure this crap out. If anyone has any suggestions Id REALLY appreciate it!!!! Thx,
Misty:bangh:

Hi lipzzz

you must show all hidden files like so:-

Open windows explorer --> select Tools à Folder Options à View à Show hidden files and folders.

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

Note: the preference folder is actually the limewire folder-delete the limewire folder.

In Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes
