Okay, here's the URL, probably the same one Stief posted above.

Here is the post that helped me solve the problem:

Here what I did...

First, the "delete-the-pref-folder" advice did nothing for me.

Steps:

1) Launch Limewire. See the new "Tips" dialog box? DISABLE the
show-tips- at-launch checkbox. Then click "ok" and hope you never
see that box again.

2) Go to LimeWire Preferences and disable the auto-connect at launch
option.

3) Quit Limewire. Then relaunch Limewire. Then manually "connect"
from the menu. Voila!

I surmise that the new Tips box is interfering with the application's
ability to connect!
