My Firewall Is Turned Off, But I Cant Dowload Music From Limewire.?
Um hello. Today i recieved an mp3player and immediatly i went to limewire to download music,
But when i tried to download a song it said
“limewire is currently conecting to the network.your search may not return many results until you are fully connected to the network”
at first i thought i had myfirewall on, but when i went to my settings it said that the firewall was already turned off.
also i tried connecting and reconecting the limewire system but that failed also
(how do i get Limewire to work, Or what other sites are there to try?)

Most likely theres nothing wrong with your limewire nor your computer.
Its highly likely its the firewall that is declining the connection. I wouldn’t use limewire as they are getting sued and they are falling apart. They also have alot of viruses and crap…
make sure your sp2 firewall is on and the exception is marked like you indicated , also if your running any other firewall make sure it’s allowing it
use iTunes… Limewire fried my hard drive…
Reset your computer and once it’s restart don’t open any other windows but Lime wire. try to download. if that doesn’t work, download a new version of Lime Wire and that will do the job. i had the same problem this past weekend!
try Frostwire, its better and safer than limwire. this problem also happened to me.
Those bars all the way at the bottom left corner will turn from red to green once your fully connected. So you need to wait a couple minutes before searching
USE iTUNES!
Oh yeah, try *”TURNING THE FIREWALL BACK ON”*
:) :D
It could be that a lot of people were trying to connect to the network at that time.
Use Utorrent its alittle different but it lets you download entire cds and discographys and on most websites people have left comments on the torrents letting you know if its good quaility or if it has a virus or not
the firewall should be on. hmm in the Firewall settings you would see a tab that says Exceptions. click on it. now your going to see a list of programs that are allow past the firewall. u need to add limewire to the list. and to that you would see near the lower left hand side theres a button called Add Program. click on it. your going to see a list of programs look for limewire and once u click on it, then click ok. and that should do it. If you can’t find limewire listed your going to have to Browse for it. Ok now i saw that people were saying that “limewire” kills the hard drive. that isn’t true. i’m a IT Pro. and i’ve had Limewire for 4 yrs now and not one problem. just watch what you DL. if its a bad song delete it. if something goes wrong. goto system restore. and thats in system tools. its a great program that brings ur computer back into the past. just let go back a day or 2. b4 when the problem started. I wish u luck.
limewire is horrible
me and all my friends used to use it
it will completely crash your computer in months
guaranteed
maybe faster depending on ur computer speed
it destroyed my laptop and the money u save on songs gets doubled in fixing ur computer
try rhapsody or any other space that offers mayb only a 6 month fee or something
or try myspace
You may need to open up a port. Go to the website below and select your router then limewire and follow the directions.
