So you tried deleting your LW preferences folder? And all the other tips in the 'Fixes for LW'? Fixes for Limewire

Are you aware that in some areas Optonline Cablevision block ports so you'd get a firewall issue if you could get it started. Answer is to use a high port number such as in the 49xxx range.

Yes sir.

I can't get it started but the test page works on the 6346 port. And it was working last time I used it about a week ago. But those firewall issues would only affect connecting. I cannot get the splash screen to get past the "loading user interface" scrolling message on the bottom of the splash screen. My Java is working fine on other sites that load the console. I just updated it. I tried the newest Beta version 1.6 but it only works with XP or Vista.
And Kazaa works fine so I still suspect a Java problem?.I am going to try and install on the wifes computer which will eliminate any network possibilities.
