Not good. Your failure to connect with either LW or FrostWire suggests something might be blocking these programs.
Did you try a fresh connection file for Frostwire? https://hotfile.com/list/2076270/ac95d09 Choose the Windows version. If this does not fix the connection problem then there must be some other reason. Either your firewall, other security software or your router's NAT is blocking gnutella network connections. Else it is your ISP. If the above connection fix does not fix FrostWire connecting, then I think it's time we had a look at your setup, http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...-you-post.html ![]() FrostWire 5 is a torrent only program, it does not connect to the gnutella network. |

I do not understand your question.
![]() On p2p file-sharing networks, you can only download as fast as people sharing can give you and as many of them as you can connect to. However, there are some scam softwares that limit downloads to prompt you to buy their pro or commercial versions of the software. If you ever see that, ignore them, there will be an equivalent or usually far superior programs out there that is totally free and does not limit your speeds. For example, Acquisition, a MacOSX shareware program would limit your download speeds after an hour. pfft ... first gnutella program I ever heard of that was designed to do that. The program developer is very commercially greedy, selfish and dishonest. And so are those that work for any program that attempts to limit your speeds in the hope you will buy their pro software. |

Regular.
It's only a small file so you do not need any high speed to download it.

I think I downloaded the fix, but I can't tell since Frostwire still doesn't work. One green bar and it still says "starting connection".
This is frustrating, because I have a bunch of songs I want to download and burn to CD and redo another since the first four songs are no good since my mother had the CD in her car's CD player. |

Can you post your system details so perhaps we might be able to find where the problem lay?

I have Windows 7 Home Edition and IE 9. I don't know what else you want. Oh I have Kapersky Anti-virus.
