Could someone repost it in a new post? I'm getting so lost and I can't remember which thread has what information.

Yes, I downloaded the Connect fix and still no connection.

Post 278 in http://www.gnutellaforums.com/gettin...tml#post370277 by LOTR. Which version of LPE did you install?

If nothing works check http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html and if none of these work then post back your system details: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...-you-post.html

Yesterday I was using LW 4.18 then 4.14 versions on a Mac. I was unable to connect using any version of LW 4 until I disabled TLS in Options -> Advanced.
But that was a common problem for me with LW 4. It may only apply to some other persons as a fix.

I installed File_Girl's version posted on here followed by the fix.

Reading past posts on deleting file folders doesn't work. They don't say what to do..........

Once you see the limewire folder after you reach the appdata folder, you right-click the LW folder and choose send to recycle bin. Then re-use the connectfix installer. Then try opening LW.

Previous explanation

If unsure, select the folder and get properties, make sure it is located at ... \AppData\Roaming\Limewire
