An exhaustive look at all the relevant FAQs and trying to apply the info therein cannot connect me at all! The proposed download is a .exe for PCs.... Tough luck for MAC users like me, huh? I tried downloading the new 1.7 version, still no effect... It's been 3 days since I can't get on the 'wire & I feel like I'm going through withdrawal. PLEASE HELP!

I just posted what I believe to be a solution to your problem. It is at:

Gnutella Forums > Gnutella Client Forums > LimeWire (Cross-platform) > Connection Problems > Can't Connect?....Try This!

(http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...&threadid=4274)

Check it out! Hope it helps!

I just did that about 10 minutes ago, and I figured that out by myself, I wish I'd read that and saved time. However, I have a problem myself. When I go on, it works for a little while, then it freezes and I have to quit. It sounds like it might be the spyware, but Ad-aware only works on Windows. Help me!

What spyware are you referring to?

What version of LimeWire are you using?

My first guess would be a Java problem.

What version of MRJ are you uising, and what OS are you on?

When you say that you have to quit, do you mean quit from the menu, or force quit?
