I've tried copying ".limewire." and moving it to the application data folder, but I would really like to avoid completely removing limewire and redownloading it as I have A LOT of music on there...=[

Has no one figured out a 100% fix for this? It's ridiculous.

Have you tried this...
Go to your Connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it...
Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more...
(try to take note of the hosts IP numbers if the same ones keep re-appearing add them to your host filter...)

Tools > Options > Filters and select the Host Filter and add these IP's into it and select apply...

Also if you want to update your Limewire, just install the new version over the top of the old, there is no need to uninstall the older version...
You won't loose any of your files either...
