Make sure that you're only using 1 software firewall (more than 1 will cause problems) & that LW's being allowed through it.
Try the advice here: all of a sudden will not connect (a fix to try) Start off by deleting LW's preferences folder & changing Java versions. You'll know if you've deleted the preferences folder properly...when you start LW, you'll go through the setup wizard again & all the settings within LW's options will have changed. If you get confused with deleting the preferences folder, have a look at this post (Windows XP). One bar, connection problems In case you're using Vista: LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista If nothing there helps, please give us your details. System details - help us to help you -> Provide these details when you post!!! |
