Limewire Is Not Starting.
 
A error window comes up when i try to open Limewire 4.8.1 Basic. The error message displays "The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it". Can someone help me with my problem?

Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?

an you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider?

I still need help
 
I have done everything in your response but its still not opening. Do you have any more suggestions that may help?

The message doesn't sound healthy. I'd suggest uninstalling & reinstalling. Go to the Start menu >Programs>LW>Uninstall
Then downld the program to your comp, & then install (don't install over the net.) Make sure you have Java installed. LW needs Java in order to run. See Fixes for Limewire & even perhaps consider changing LW's compatibility to win 2k!
