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. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. 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. |

| OK we will give it a try. But remember this can mess thing up if you remove the wrong thing by mistake. (#1) First go to the Control Panel then Add and Remove Programs and uninstall LimeWire first then all versions of Java. If it doesn't let you don't worry about it (attachment #1). (#2) After you finish uninstalling them go to Start/My Computer/Local Drive (C: )/Program Files look for the LimeWire and Java Files and delete them. (attachment #2). (#3) Now comes the fun part go to Start/Run and type regedit into the box (attachment #3) (#4) Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER go to software expand it look for Java Script if you find it delete it. Now collapse it. (attachment#4) (#5) Now go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE go to software expand it look for Java, LimeWire & Magnet delete them if you find them.Collapse it(attachment #5) (#6) Now go to HKEY_USERS go to S-1-5-21 the first one then go to software expand it look for java if you find it delete it. Collapse it. Close registry editor. Unfortunately it will only let me attach 5 files so you will have to do this step without visual aids. Also when you are in the registry all files a listed alphabetically. If the files listed are not there don't worry about it just delete the ones that are. (#7) Reboot your computer (#8) With that done go to the Java button at the bottom of this post get Java the offline installer and save it to your desktop. then go to the Link below and get LimeWire the offline installer and save it to your desktop. (#9) Now click on the Java installer and install it. (Hopefully all goes well here) (#10) Reboot (#11) Now click on the LimeWire installer and install LimeWire. (#12) Reboot (#13) Start LimeWire and cross your fingers say a prayer or whatever because if this doesn't work, I do not know what else to do. This will work about 1/2 the time with cases like yours where Java just will not install properly. I do not know the cause of this issue but if anyone else does I sure wish they would share it with me.  Any way Good Luck and may the computer gods be on your side.

| OK I went back and I see you have Windows 2000. I have never used 2000 I went online and found these instructions for 2000. Once you get into the registry editor go to step #4. How to edit the registry To edit the registry, Microsoft recommends that you follow the steps in the Microsoft documentation only. If possible, use the Windows user interface instead of directly editing the registry. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that result from incorrectly using Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. For more information about editing the registry, follow these steps in RegistryEditor: 1. On the Help menu, click Contents. 2. On the Contents tab, double-click Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe). 3. Double-click the topic that you want to read. The link below is to the page the instructions came from. http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;Q322755
