everytime i try to open my limewire i get a message that says:
LimeWire was unable to initialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking LimeWire's access to the internet or loopback connections on the local machine. Please allow LimeWire access to the internet and restart. I know it's not my firewall, and how do i allow it access to the internet. |

Has LW worked for you before? Double check that you're only running 1 firewall & that it's configured properly
Firewall setup If that's all ok, try updating your Java & deleting your LW preferences folder. See points 1, 2 & 3 below Fixes for LimeWire Otherwise you might have to look at a firewall within a modem/router. Are you running with UPnP enabled or port forwarding? Have a look through this sticky for more info Connection problems? Check here first! |
