I have been able to use Limewire before and it worked fine about a week ago and now it shows that i'm searching but I get no results. I have a brick wall in front of my globe. I'm just going to answer all your questions to the best of my ability:

1. Windows XP Home

2. I have firewalls on my Norton antivirus and internet security but it's set to always allow Limewire.

3. & 4. not quite sure where to find this but I this is a new computer so I know I have plenty of space left.

5. Cable connection

6. Motorola surfboard model SB5120

7. townhome complex

8. Limewire 4.12.6 and Java 1.5.0

9. Cox Communications

10. It said your test worked and thats it

11. no

12. It worked last week just fine. I recently installed norton but I have downloaded songs since then and it worked fine and I checked the firewall preferences and it's set to always allow limewire.

13. there is a brick wall in front of the globe.


Please help! Thanks a lot!

For starters, try the advice in the thread below (click on link)

Did you disable your XP built in firewall prior to installing Norton??

One thing you could try is to delete the LW prefence folder.
Read here on how to delete this folder (Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire)

Afterwards reboot your computer

My max search is set to 5 already. When I went to magnetmix.com I was able to download from there. Bearshare also worked but I'm not really a big fan of it. I prefer Limewire and since it was working previously, I would like to get it working again. I also tried deleting the preferences and that didn't work either. My windows firewall has been turned off since my norton one has been turned on. Is there anything else you can think of to help me? Thanks!

turn of LW...then go into Norton's firewall and delete the entries for LW and Java...then restart LW, and allow Norton's to set up access again...

I just did that and it still has the brick wall in front of the globe. Norton security popped up and I said always allow. I then decided to uninstall and reinstall limewire cause I haven't tried that yet and no such luck. Anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks!
