novella7311 this is the Vista section, your best to copy and paste your information and start your own thread in the connection problems section of the forum...Cheers..

Sorry nascarjr88fan I mixed you up with another connection problem...

Try right-clicking the Limewire icon and going to properties and change compatability setting to Windows 2000. (but only if you're using Windows 2000 or later.) Somebody reported changing to Windows NT compatibility fixed their problem despite not using that operating system version.

Right-click on the Limewire icon on the desktop and click on Run as. Then it should come up showing the current user and then switch it over to Administrator. (but 'only' if you're the admin of your comp.!)
