Beacause Limewire is a bad program...it has installed all kinds of bugs on your computer...I spent over 100 bucks cleaning LimeWire off of my computer...it is bad news. And you can't just "delete" it...it won't be fully gone if you do it that way. You are either goig to have to pay someone to clean it out or hopefully you know someone who is qualified to do it for you free. Good Luck.

I don't know.. It might be your internet connection having some problems or te version of your limewire is not the latest. Does this happen all the time when you launch limewire? What version is your limewire?

Check and make sure you have cookies enabled. If you disable limewire cookies, it won't turn on.

The short answer is to delete limewire & reload. Assuming you have XP, open the liitle shield down in the lower right corner of your desk-top. Click on Windows Firewall, then click the Exceptions Tab. Then allow Limewire.

most games or other programs you download from limewire are unreliable, and contain viruses and spyware\n\nhave the file scanned by an antivirus and an antispyware software before installing; even then it may not be the real game\n\nto install, you have to find the file you downloaded in your download folder, and run the executable setup (.exe)

open limewire, go to file, then connect. Maybe thats the problem. In the options part, someone may have told it to not to connect on startup.

Well...if Limewire isn't working for you, you probably have a firewall blocking it.  Check that out.  Also remember that downloading copyrighted music without paying is a no no.  Sure there are lots of people doing it, but it's still illegal.  So just be careful :-)

What I would recommend would be to uninstall Limewire (Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs), and not install it again. As far as Java goes, you can simply reinstall it from the Java website (http://java.sun.com/).\n\nLimewire can be a very bad program, I know numerous people who have had big problems with their computers because of it. I even know one person whose computer became entirelly unusable due to a virus which he received through a seemingly harmless download on Limewire. I even tried Limewire once for about three days (before I knew of the dangers of it), and I was amazed at how much it slowed down my computer. I really have nothing against Limewire itself, it's just all of the malicious people who use it for their own malicious purposes.

Just shut down Limewire. It automatically deletes all the stored data.

Limewire itself has no viruses.  It is, however, possible to download a virus using Limewire.  This would be accidental, ofcourse.  For example, you download a file called "happy_birthday.mp3".  This file has a size of 851.7 kb.  This would obviously be something bad (a virus or something) because most mp3 files are at least 2mb in size.\n\nIf you are using Limewire to download files, you MUST become familiar with file types and the common sizes associated with those file types.  If these data don't look right, then don't download that file.\n\nTo rid your pc of "bad files" that you have downloaded using Limewire, you will need a good anti-virus software.  You can find a good one for free at:  \n\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/softw/70free/setup/avg71free_375a716.exe\n\nIt's called Anti- Virus Gold Free Edition.  It's what I use and it works superbly.\n\nAlso, if your pc is running slow, and if you are running Windows XP, Click "start", "all programs", "accessories", "system tools", "disk defragmenter" and then click "Defragment" when it opens.  It will take quite a long time, but it will speed up your pc.

Yes, but they won't try to restart downloading when you open limewire up.

A firewall protects your computer from internet threats. Such programs might be blocking Limeware or other internet program from accessing the web. If Limeware connects then there is no problem, if it does not then you'll have either to disable your firewall or unblock Limeware in the firewall settings.\n\nCheck Limeware help files for more info.

If system restore won't work, then the hotfixes couldn't have been the cause of the problem (unless you aren't restoring to before you installed the hotfixes)\n\nTry uninstalling again, then before you reinstall, kill as many processes running in the background as possible . (make sure they are ones you are familiar with and ones you know won't interfere with windows operation if shut down). Then after you've done that, try to reinstall limewire. Sometimes programs screw up when you install them while another application or program is running which could be using shared files.
