![]() Try this method. 1. Open Limewire program (i.e. display it). 2. Click "Start". Click "Control Panel". 3. Switch to "Classic View." 4. Click "Windows Firewall" icon. 5. Click "Exceptions." 6. Uncheck "Limewire" i.e. remove the "tick" symbol from the box at left of the Limewire entry. 7. Click "Add program". 8. Select "Limewire" program & click it. 9. This message will be displayed: "Limewire is already in the list of exceptions." Click "OK." 10. Check "Limewire" (add a "tick' back to the blank box at left. 11. Click "OK." 12. Check whether the bars have turned green & whether the brick has disappeared. This method worked for me. Please post a reply if it does work for you.Thanks. |

![]() Please insert: Step - 9a. Click "Cancel". If this method doesn't work, please uninstall Limewire program (i.e. click "Start" & search for all Limewire files & remove them all). Then download the Limewire program again. Good luck! |

![]() When you deleted the preferences folder, did you also look for a folder in the old location (folder named .limewire)? When you started LW, did it run through the setup wizard again? Have you also tried replacing the gnutella.net file, which is found within the hidden LimeWire folder? If not, there's more info here. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-fix-try.html http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...tml#post296950 |

![]() Add this step: 13. If the bars are still red & the brick is still there, turn off & restart your computer, open the Limewire program & see whether the problem has been fixed or not. If not, go through Steps 1 - 13 again. |
