ok - I dont know why this is happening -- can you download/install a different version of Limewire Then re-install limewire using the offline installer...To find the offline installer, use the link below > cancel the installer window when it pop's up and then select the offline installer link...Lime Wire » Download LimeWire

hi brendan, well yr present version isnt working at the moment so I just thought to give a different version a go to see if it downloads ok -- if it doesnt go back to yr original version --- it's abit of trial and error here to see what will work -- give it a go and let us know how you got on
dont forget to use the Limewire uninstall and to delete the Limewire folder as I have said in previous posts

goodmorning Brendan, ok lets try this -- delete yr current java 6.0 from the add/remove programs list and install this older version 5.0 from here:-
Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11
Download the JRE offline installer & remove any other Java versions (via Add/Remove Programs) before installing another one.

ok good - we have sorted out the download/installation problem of LW now lets try and get you connected -- please scroll up to page 1 post #2 (permalink) of this thread and follow the instructions I gave you for that fix (delete/replace gnutella.net file)

If this doesnt fix yr problem -- in limewire links click on (If LW will not connect) and go through those fixes
