I upgraded. I also tried the LW disconnect and connect, still nothing. My firewall is up also?

click on the link that Birdy provided - go to your preferences folder and do exactly as is written - delete your gnuttella and then re-load it from the link he has provided. The 1st one did not work for me but the 2nd link downloaded right away. As soon as I re-started LW came up in 5 seconds

for vista you 1st have to do this first- start/your user name/organize/folder & search options/view tab/click on show hidden files & folders / click apply,ok - you might have to restart now but I'm not sure. After this do exactly what birdy's link says. Start/user name/Limewire/delete gnuttella & then download the new one from his link

Exactly the same for me, and a bunch of others. What's going on? If they're having a problem, they should at least alert us!
