Your modem/router is the box that your internet connection runs through...

Ahhh hang on, your on dial up...Does your computer have a built in 56k modem ????

You can check this by going to Control panel > printers and other hardware > phone and modem options....

Try right-clicking the Limewire icon and going to properties and change the compatability setting to Windows 2000. This is our last hope....Good luck..

Do those apps work, can you connect ok with them ?? You shouldn't have to uninstall them, just don't run them at the same time as running limewire...

Can you go to add/remove programs and tell me what version of Java you are using ??

I actually just went back and read a previous thread of yours and found the fact you can't connect to bearshare either...

As Aaron suggested your AOL security could have alot to do with this as well...

Default connection problems

I had limewire for a long time, but just recently when I open the program, it acts like it is going to start up and them simply goes away. No connection or opening up or anything. Need help!
