Connection Problem
 

Same story as everyone, stuck on starting connection.

If you have problems you can't solve then please post a thread giving the following details:

OS version: Windows Vista.
Firewalls: Windows Firewall, is there one in Norton?
Ram: 1.9GB (2GB)
Hard Disk Space: 243.5GB
Connection type: Cable
Modem & router brand name: Modem: Superlink2810 Router: Linksys
Trying to connect from: Home
Frostwire Version: 4.18.0
Java version: 1.6.0_01
ISP provider: Bell-Aliant
Is this a your 1st try at FW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Used it a while.
12. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of FW's interface? Yes!

Depends which Norton package you have. Check the Norton folder & see if there is a firewall there. If there is, then choose between either Norton or Vista's firewall to use & disable the other one. Add FW as an exception to the one you decide to use; Setting up an exception for LimeWire/FrostWire in your software firewall (click in link). Simply add FW instead of the suggested LW. ;)

Set FW to run as administrator by right-clicking on the shortcut to the program.

If you have not used FW in a while, perhaps you need a fresh gnutella.net file. Try the tips here: If LW 4 Will Not Connect (click on the blue link). Of course, these tips apply to both LW & FW. :)

BTW your Java is not the most recent. Sometimes it can affect connection. Java Downloads for All Operating Systems - Sun Microsystems & choose the Offline installer.

Forgot to mention, if you update your Java, you should reboot your computer to get the newer version into action. :)
