Tried everything (it still won't run)

I have turned my firewall off, and all other protection. I have uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times. There are no other firewalls on my computer. I can get it to run once, then it just stops--when I don't even change anything. The last time I got it to run what over a week ago. i have followed all the steps in turning off everything, and it still won't run. i don't know what else to do. i am very frustrated at this point. I have been working on this issue for 2 hours this morning. All i want, is access to limewire. I dont understand why it is so difficult.

i'm right there w/u...OS is Vista64 | Java is 1.6.11 | Gateway is Motorola SBG900 set for port forwarding 6346:6346 TCP/UDP. oh and LWPro is 4.12.11. All firewalls are off, even though i configured exceptions. Comcast is ISP. i have done everything that i have found here and elsewhere. my friend runs it noprob and he has gone over my settings, everything is identitcal except port config : he runs on 44496. yes i tried and no luck. i'm about ready to throw in the towel. BTW went into command console and pinged multiple ports and i receive ping timeouts????pls help

2 things:

1. Have you replaced your gnutella.net file with a newer version?
2. Does your router have UPnP enabled? If so, you don't need to forward ports.

I went through all this about a year ago and it ended up being an outdated gnutella.net file.

Sorry if you've already tried/considered these things.

connection problems

Laitude thanks,

i will give it a try later today--putting out Friday fires.

this order: Check your firewall, Delete/Replace gnutella.net File, Delete Limewire's Preference Folder -- if still not working go
back to the top and do the rest of the fixes. NOTE: [1] when you replace the gnutella.net file with a new one check the filesize --
The download size from mediafire (gnutella.net) is 25.37kb -- if smaller download another gnutella.net file. [2] The Preference Folder is another name for Limewire Folder.

if after all of this your problem remains click on (system details) fill in and post back here
