1.7
 

oh, hey, kath!! i have windows ME and was wondering if i downloaded the right version of 1.7. the file folders read:


limewirewin1 and
limewirewinnovm(compressed file) would you happen to know if these are right for me? thanks :)

Hi mlledes!

I think I know what your problem is.
LimeWire 1.6x is notorious for gnet connection problems and incoming port # errors. These errors were, for the most part, the result of java 1.1 vs 1.3.1 Java Run Time Enviroment conflicts within the LimeWire software. There was a link to a temporary patched version, but this has since been taken down (Version 1.6 is a bit old). If you don't mind downloading a newer version, the problem has been fixed in 1.7 and above. I recommend LimeWire 1.7c. It doesn't have any ads or spyware, like 1.8 and 1.9 do (please, no flaming here about this - start a new thread if you want to). Here's the link:

To download the newest version, go to;

Greetings,

sorry, but can you tell me what this means?: "(please, no flaming here about this - start a new thread if you want to)."
what's flaming?
like i said, i downloaded 1.7 but i'm not sure i got the right one for my OS. i haven't installed it yet because i wanted someone to tell me if i got the right version first. the files read:

limewirewin1
limewirewinNovm
i am using windows ME.
any help is mucho appreciated!:)

FLAMING definition
 

Here's a little explanation:

There are other people who are reading this thread, and a common thing to argue and fight about, or flame, is whether or not LimeWire contains spyware. Whenever there are mentions of it on the forums, people tend to get riled up too quickly, and before you know it, people are flaming. I said "(please, no flaming here about this - start a new thread if you want to)" because I did not want people posting about this topic. If they wished to do so, I wanted them to do it on another thread.

:-)

So, this was not directed towards you, but to other people reading on the forum. Sorry I didn't make that clear before.

You should download the LimeWireWin.exe file:

Did this help? Feel free to ask any more questions you may have!

P.S. There are numerous spyware discussions currently going on in the forums. Here's the link to a web site that gives info about spyware:
