Limewire Pro - didn't work
 

Can anyone help me? I signed up to use Limewire Pro, my credit Card was charged, I entered the e-mail address I thought I used but I can't find anyone to contact to find out how to get it. If anyone can help it would be great.

thanks

did you get an e-mail yet? that will have a link to your personal pro page.

I am aslo moving this post to the correct forum. You should read the forum rules and the stickies at the top of each forum.

a tip
 

if limewirepro costs money then why do i find it at search in limewire. and you can download it for free.??? :confused:

The free version is Limewire Basic. Pro costs money. Read the Limwire website. It'll give you the comparisons.

no no
 

i can download the pro from limewire you just search for it , so try and you will beleive.

something
 

once i searched google for it and i found the megaupload site where i download it for free, and megaupload is like a sharing web-site, like limewire.

Ummm, Limewire Pro IS a 'PAID' program and can only be obtained legally by the offical site. If you dl it from somewhere else you will most likely end up with a hacked/bogus or a corrupt version. Pro IS NOT available for free.

no it is
 

i did download limewire pro for 5 times by now, but the thing is that you cannot update it. i just search for it again and someone will be sharing the new version. you can beleive me if you direct connect to ***** and you will see. but i don't recomend you to download anything because it could be a virus and my computer is already infected.

Sorry can't advertise ip's on the forum

No It Aint!
 

If you're not pulling my leg, then I strongly suggest you clean your computer with an anti virus program ASAP! There is nothing wrong with the free Basic version of Limewire, it works just as well as the Pro and does the samething. Seriously go get a free anti virus cleaner or you'll find yourself screwed.:eek: :eek: What people are doing is sharing a virus NOT Limewire Pro!

edited to add the link: Uninstall whatever that is on your computer and go get the free, basic version and you will be better off:

www.limewire.com IS THE ONLY PLACE to get the offical Limewire software.

Good luck, over and out.

beleive me
 

the pro has the chat, fast download, and impossible for a download to stop or fail to download. i had the basic version and it is very slow...

Basic has chat too and no, Pro is not incapable of failing to download something. I used to have it, and it really depends on the computer who is uploading the file whether a file finishes. It might have some faster download speeds and better search results however, basic is almost as good.

Re: No It Aint!
 

I'll miss you if you go. :(

Im still kinda here Hobo, but not as much as my help according to the admins is not wanted. Im not allowed to chit chat on here according to Lord Of The Rings and wont be offering anymore of my socalled wrong advice, so, no problem. ;)


mohannad_7 - dont you realize that what you're using is a hacked version that contains a virus? You'd rather use that instead of Basic which is virus free just because you think its downloading faster? You'd gladly keep a virus on your system just so you can download? :confused:

Some People will never Learn:confused: :confused:

welp, I've tried to convince him/her that its not the real deal oh well. I dont know how his computer is running if its infested? :confused: ;) :eek:

i think...
 

hay now i get it. i had a virus since 5 month and thats since i startet using limewire pro and i thought it wasnt a hacked version but it was a version shared by a user on many web-sites i got it from. and i have formatted my computer for about 5 times and everytime i still have it because i download the fake pro. thank you all and i like to advice you to not ever download this fake version. :( . i am going to get an anti virus and format my computer. goodby all hope i see you after 6 hours. :( :(

Downloaded but Wont Work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

I have downloaded the version for limewire and installed five times over, but the darn thing still will not start up. I have installed Javascrpting and uninstalled LimeWire and reinstalled it and it will still Not Work. It is frustrating me and have to get it back because I had to do a systemrestore.

Thank You

Heather

Go here to get the basic version: www.limewire.com if you dl it from other websites you will not get what you think you're getting. and if you get a virus for the love of god, go get a anti virus program and cleanout your computer right away!:rolleyes:

Not working
 

I downloaded from the limewire site several time and erased it also. The program gets on my computer and the desktop Icon show up and then when I click on the icon after it tells me it is finished installing, it shows the hour glass and then goes absolutely nothing.

Thanks.

Heather

Did you get it from: www.limewire.com? if not and you paid for a fake Pro from some other website then you got scammed.

I even updated the basic version thats out now and have had no problems. In fact, since I installed the latest version, I'm at my top speed.

I suggest you email the company you bought the software from to get your money back.

mohannad_7 is right!
 

i looked into this and its all good. I searched programs for LWpro and it came up straight away, so i took the risk and DL it. It worked and none of my 6 virus detectors found anything sus! I hope this helps put the debate to rest. Im just wondering why I paid US$30 for the standard LW.....Think i got ripped off there...oh well s**t happens, at lease I got PRO for nothing.
Thanks for letting me in on this little secret mooo.

No doubt Limewire Devs will know of a way to prevent copies of LW pro that are unofficially obtained, being used. or maybe they'll spend the next six months trying to work out away and neglect the real job of developing LW further.

Why the *** this thread got driven in the direction it did is beyond me. Mohannad: you suggest getting LW off an unnoficial site. You admit you have a computer riddled with viruses. Can anyone see a connection between those totally independent????? facts.

Mahannad I think you also said you have a computer shop or something, for all I know you could work for the RIAA.

Your advise has been totally irrespionsible in this, and other threads on the same subject.

Limewire and the web in general are riddled in viruses, yet you are suggesting that we add to them and not try to stop them. Please come back with the sensible comments you have but lay off this subject because it's usefulness is zero

YES THERE ARE A FEW PROBLEMS WITH LIMEWIRE PRO INSTALLING> If people are having problems, there are enough archive posts and helpers on here. Lets have the problems explained properly and hopefully sorted without the risk of adding more garbage/viruses to the gnutella network.

You said, in one of your posts, that you can't get LW to start and you have done the following:I would like to point out that JAVASCRIPT AND JAVA are two different things, if, as you say, you have loaded Javascript onto your PC then LW will not work.

You need to load JAVA (Ver 1.5 or 5.0), which is available from the SUN web site:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp

The page is somewhat confusing but there is enough info to help you to find what you want.
