These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Help: Extremely Annoyed and Clueless I'm pretty sure where this goes, if its not please tell me where it belongs so I may repost it there. First off, I would like to explain why I chose to uninstall Limewire and just buy the music CD's. Limewire would auto select my C: Drive to share, I re-installed several times to try and fix this, which caused it to share thousands upon thousands of files, which lagged my computer to the point I couldn't use LimeWire, yet alone change which files are shared. On top of that, each time I closed LimeWire, it would open itself back again, creating the same issues stated above, these 2 things pushed me far enough that I un-installed the program permanently. Now that I have un-installed LimeWire I no longer have LimeWire automatically opening up, how ever I do have a java window popping up saying LimeWire failed to open. I have all LimeWire files removed, and it is not on my "Add/Remove Files List" under the control panel. I get the below error message. --- LimeWire version 4.17.6 Java version 1.6.0_03 from Sun Microsystems Inc. Windows XP v. 5.1 on x86 Free/total memory: 31303464/33357824 com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUILoader$StartupFailed Exception: .\lib\hashes (The system cannot find the file specified) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUILoader.sanityCheck(G UILoader.java:281) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUILoader.load(GUILoade r.java:58) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Nativ e Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknow n Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Un known Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.Main.main(Main.java:45) STARTUP ERROR! -- listing properties -- WINDOW_Y=-4 WINDOW_X=-4 PORT=2460 TOTAL_CONNECTION_TIME=28663297 LAST_FWT_STATE=true RUN_ON_STARTUP=false UPDATE_DELAY=252000020 UPDATE_GIVEUP_FACTOR=49 DOWNLOAD_SNAPSHOT_BACKUP_FILE=C:\Documents and Settings\Mark\Deskto...

I have had good experiences with LimeWire in the past, but these issues have driven me insane (They started when I upgraded to version 14 I believe, after updating to Version 18 the problem was still there) Don't tell me how to fix Limewire while its installed, I don't plan on using it again, just tell me how I can get rid of the Java error message that pops up every minute. Thanks in advance.  |

 You probably have a virus. Make sure your antivirus application has the latest virus definitions and do a full scan of your whole system. The symptoms you have described sound very like the ones other people have described who have found that a virus is causing all of their problems. It's probably not Limewire's fault at all that you have been having the problems you have reported. Read the advice provided in this link and see if that solves your problem: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...m-startup.html And if you're the same panther who wrote and bragged that you had Limewires support phone number you should fully understand why nobody has bothered to answer your questions for a week.

| It wasn't a virus, I found the issue. The uninstall doesn't remove all teh files, at least it didn't for me, I found a batch of library files for limewire (Created the same day I installed limewire) that weren't uninstalled. After I manually removed them myself everything was fine. I'm not the same Panther that posted something about a phone number, to be honest I didn't even know about these forums until I week ago, when I posted. How ever I did decide to test what you said, probably not the smartest thing to do once I fix the problem, and found that it didn't work for me. I could of had a glitched install caused by my firewall or lag, just don't know. Thanks for the help, I'm not the same panther that bragged about a support phone number, personally over all in the past I have had issues with support numbers, not saying limewire is one, and no longer use them, let alone look for them, instead I post on a forum and hope for an answer while I try to fix it myself. |
