Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. 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.

Angry Error message when downloading. I REALLY need your help!!

"This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." This comes up shortly after I launch the installer, after I select the language and everything. I've read other threads that have a link to http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dl....shtml?msvcr71 for downloading the .dll file or whatever. Anyways, since it's a Zip file, when it downloaded and I opened up the folder, I hit "Extract Files". Then it said that Windows couldn't open it because it was in use by other programs or applications or whatever, and that editing or modifying it could damage my computer. Then I hit OPEN anyways and it said that Windows couldn't identify which program runs it or something. So. I was stuck.

Then I read the Readme and it said for help opening zip files go to www.winzip.com and download the program. Well, I'm not going to waste $30 on it.

Sooo. Can anybody help me out here? Does anybody know an alternative way I could open the file with? THANKS SO MUCH.

Get http://www.warp2search.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4139 TUGZip same as winrar but FREE. It does all winrar & winzip can do. Perhaps you should close all applications before opening the zip file. I needed to do something similar (downld a .dll file but didn't have any complications.) Perhaps a reboot will help (close off all other apps.) Or even boot into safe mode.

Okay, I downloaded TUGZip 3.4, and I downloaded the .dll file again. TUGZip automatically opened to show it. I clicked OPEN, and it said "There is no default application assigned to the file that you want to open. Do you want to view it instead?" So I hit YES and just a bunch of random characters showed up.

So then I right clicked on it and Extracted the files to My Documents, and everything seemed to be okay. Now...can I just download LimeWire again? Or am I missing a step somewhere?

You need to put that .dll file where it was missing in your system files. After that then reinstall LW. I would recommend installing the "Offline" LW version. If still problems then downld the "Other" version listed at the bottom of the downloads list & just unzip & use.

There were instructions in the zip with the dll file, weren't there?
They usually remember to put instructions in there.

No, I don't think there were. I'll check again.

How do I find out where the .dll file is missing in my system files? I tried downloading the offline version of LW again and the same error message came up.

Argh, this is driving me NUTS.

Most of my .dll files are here C:\WINNT\system32 except for those that are a part of the program package.

I tried searcing for C:\WINNT\system32, and this came up: C:\WINNT refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly insterted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."

What the heck?! Please help...
