These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated.

Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Limewire Java problem - Can't click on anything. Hi. When I first downloaded Limewire I did not have any problems with it what so ever but one day it just refused to work properly, I have had this problem for probably about a year now, I have tried every possible method I can think of but yet it refuses to be fixed. Everytime I load up Limewire, all the menus and everything load up fine but I am unable to click on any buttons what so ever. They highlight when the mouse is scrolled over them like they are supposed to do, but I just can not click on them. Which is obviously an inconvinence. The exact same occurs when I open the Java Control Panel so obviously it is a Java problem. I have tried installing the latest version of Java, installing an older version of Java, removing the .limewire file, re-installing Limewire and pretty much every method I have come across on this forum, but nothing does the trick. I have also scanned for viruses just in case, and of course nothing came up. I am using Windows 98 and have over 5GB of free HD space. I am currently using the latest version of Limewire Pro and Java. Hopefully somebody here will have a solution to my problem. Thanks, Mark.  |

| this sounds like a memory leak to me...and 98se is widely known for having a big problem with that..basically when a program reserves memory for itself, it does not free it up when shut down.. try rebooting and starting LW again and see what happens... |

| Sadly, no change. I have also tried restoring my old registry settings through scanreg, but didn't have any success that way either. Any other suggestions? |

| Have you tried changing skins. Just a long-shot. Skins have been known to cause problems in other situations or platforms. When was the last time you defragged the HDD. How much ram do you have? (I hope there's not too many cooks here lol  ) |

| since said user is actually using 98, that box must ba ancient as hell, and I truly think that is at least half of the problem....present day LW releases (along with all other programs in this world) are really not intended for use on such an old OS |

| Yes lol, I do have a pretty ancient OS, I know, I really should update. I have 256MB RAM. And I last defragged about 3-4 months ago I think. 3dfx Voodoo Banshee PCI vid card. At least I think...and yes I have tried changing skins, but no luck. As I said before I am unable to click on anything in the Java Control Panel neither, no matter what version of Java I use. This never used to be the case as LW and everything else using Java used to work perfectly for me. |

| well...it appears to me as if your whole system is really not up to running modern apps..this is just a personal opinion...your vid card prolly only has 16MB of ram on it, and yur specs for 'normal' ram whilst nice for about 6 years ago, is really lacking for current apps...basically, and it makes sense if you think upon it, present day apps are made for present day machines... IMHO a present day machine should have at least 512 of RAM, a minimum of 64MB video card (AGP or PCI-Express), and a minimum of 2.0GHz cpu...I think this is what's needed to deal with present day software... as a note, this system is a P4 Northwood core 2.8GHz with a 256MB vid card, and 2GB of ram (really only 1GB is needed, but I tend to do a lot of things at once on this machine) running Windoze XP SP2.... if you archive things like I do, then take a few steps back with both your LW program and the Java release... |
