 Vista Ultimate and LimeWire PRO 4.10.0 I succesfully installed the latest Java 6 runtimes for Vista, and LimeWire installed without problems as well. But it just won't connect. This is my PC setup: Core 2 Duo 2.67GHz (OC'ed 2.99GHz) Windows Vista Ultimate (32bit) X-Fi XtremeMusic Ati X1900XTX 2GB (2*1GB) OCZ dual channel And I have a direct cable connection to the internet, I have got Windows Firewall enabled but have made Limewire.exe an exception. Can anyone please help me with this? I really prefer LimeWire over other p2p programmes.  |

| Get a new version of LimeWire. Old versions are incompatible and have bugs. |

| Old versions are not incompatible

| RE: No I do not have McAfee or Norton anti-virus or firewall software installed, I only have the Windows Firewall enabled. And that Java update is for the v5 runtimes, I have the latest v6 runtimes installed. As for the version of LimeWire, v10 is still new isn't it?

| Yes there is a wall in front of the globe, but I have excluded Limewire.exe from the Windows FireWall. My ISP is Telenet (Belgium), I only have the default Windows Vista security settings enabled. And I don't use a router. |

| Weird, when I right-click on the link for LimeWire (or BitTorrent) and choose 'run as administrator' it does seem to work. Albeit more slowly than otherwise, on XP I get up to Turbocharged speed, in Vista only up to Fair Connection. But I am logged on as an Administrator, so why won't it work when I simply double-click the application? Maybe the next versions of these programmes need to be further optimised for Vista? |
