Last year I successfully downloaded music files from LimeWire. A recent attempt failed completely to connect. I am wondering if recent system protection S/W updates (eg, phishing) have altered a significant setting somewhere.
Has anyone had a similar connection problem with Limewire?
I have a new Dell Inspiron E1505 32 Bit running Vista, it worked fine in XP on my old Dell Laptop. Having major problems with Vista.
I have changed the compability mode to XP Service Pack 2
I ran LimeWire as administator and this is what came up. The first box said that it was a corrupt installation or not complete. I have tried to download this several times. I'm wondering if it might be better to just remove it and pay the monthly fee for Yahoo jukebox.
LimeWire version 4.12.11
Java version 1.6.0-oem from Sun Microsystems Inc.
Windows XP v. 5.1 on x86
Free/total memory: 28960408/33357824

I eventually got over this problem by deleting Limewire and doing a clean re-install. I also found out that it was very traffic dependant, and the response was quite slow during peak usage time of day. If I waited until after midnight, the download times were OK. Nothing to do with my ISP, just the Limewire website. Sorry I'm not able to help decoding your log.
