Way to much to read!!!
 
I just paid for 3 months worth of LW.

I downloaded 5.5.10 version and I've searched and searched and searched but to no avail I can't get LW to work.

Everytime I search for an artist all it says is Limewire is connecting, there's no connection what-so-ever on the bottom left corner. I adjusted my Firewall settings and still NOTHING!

What did I pay $15 for then? I can't download anything yet :(

Don't panic, yet! hehe :D

See the link near top of page (above your post) about System Details, click on it & post back the details about your system set up, and we will see if we can find anything which stands out that might be contributing to your connection problematic issue. :)

Oh and also, go to your LW menu bar, Tools menu, choose Advanced Tools & (a) tell us if you see any connections listed that are stationary & not dropping away. If connected normally you would see 5 connections for LW Pro (only 3 for Basic.) (b) Also, what does the message at far left of that window say about firewall?

I went into Tools....Advanced Tools and there's absolutely nothing in those boxes. They are all blank!


As far as System Details go....I'm trying to connect @ work, I'm using Windows XP and Limewire 5.5.10 and my Java is 6 I believe. Before I paid for the 3 months and downloaded a free trial of LM I got connected, made 1 cd and now that I paid I can't get a connection.

There is no free trial. LW Basic is FREE. LW Pro costs.

Since you are reluctant to supply all these details http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...-you-post.html
I will look into my magic ball and try to guess a magic solution: Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire. :)

Here's another tip, don't use LW or a work computer, if not configured properly it can be a security risk and you could be open to disciplinary proceedings.
