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

when you say youve done that do you mean that you deleted the gnutella.net file and replaced it with a new one as per the instructions -- did you also go through all the fixes in (If LW will not connect) in Limewire Links -- pse update me on the limewire version youre using with java 5.0

Download the latest version of Java. Remove All Java versions installed (via Add/Remove Programs) before you install the latest Version. (Download the JRE Offline Installer)try searching again to see how it goes . We seem to have ended up where you first started and if changing the java doesnt work for you I'm fresh out of ideas, I have seen other people with the same problem (http://www.gnutellaforums.com/gettin...eone-help.html) as yourself but they were told that it's possibly a java problem.</p>
