Having so much trouble......PLZ HELP ME!!!! Ok, so i am seriously about to smash my computer!!! I have recently downloaded the newer version of Limewire and it was all working fine. So i go to download a few more songs the other day and it kept coming up wiht a message that says Limewire is currently trying to connect with the network and you may not get many results (or something like that) so i pressed ok and typed in a search and as it was searching, nothing come up on my screen in the results window. The search was going (the turning blue part), but nothing showing. So ok, i went out of Limewire and went back into it and it kept coming up with a Limewire setup wizard. I did that and again, the same message about the connection. So i went out of it and into it about 3 times and STILL come up with the setup wizard and connection prob. So ok, i took it off my computer totally and re-downloaded it and it was ok. I thought finally, i have it back.....how wrong i was!!!! Now, it is not showing the results of the searches again. The search is happening (the blue part....i hope you no what i mean by that), but nothing in my results window. So i am at my wits end and am getting fed up. Can someone PLEASE help me with this and tell me why it is doing this all of a sudden? My mum downloaded the same thing and has had no probs at all, but i seem to be having all the probs. Any help would be so gratefully appreciated!!! Kyleigh |

Please provide these details as well as tellingus whether you and your mom are using the same internet connection. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...-you-post.html If you are usingthe same connection then start comparing settings, version numbers, protective apps etc. on both computers. That way you may find the culprit easily. |

Ok, i have some more details.....sorry about that. I guess it can be hard to try and help someone when you have no idea on anything!!! Ok, i am using Windows XP, i have broadband, i'm connecting from my house, my Limewire version is 4.16.7 and Java is 1.6.0_01. I don't know what a firewall is (not up with all the technical side of things....sorry), not sure about how much ram i have or my hard disc space, Telstra is my provider, the test worked, no i'm not sharing the connection, its a new problem with an experienced user, YES there is a brickwall (?) and my antivirus is AVG 8.0. I hope this helps out. The thing is, it was all working fine before, no probs at all and then one day i turned my computer on and it just didn't want to work and thats when i had to download it all again and then it was ok and now it just doesn't want to show the search results. Thanks again for any help. Kyleigh |

OK first try replacing the gnutella.net file and if that doesn't work then try deleting the preference folder. More info on that here: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html If that doesn't work then uninstall your version and try installing the older version in my signature. |
