You know when it's connected but runs real shitty and won't download anything, what's the problem? And is there anything you can do to resume normal service?

    Are you sharing anything... LimeWires connection is dpendent on the amount you share, unless you can find a copy of LimeWire Pro anywhere..

    Try to download LimeWire Pro from something like www.mininova.org

    You get much better connections and speeds genrally.

    It runs like lightening some days. Then won't work for shit others even though it says it's connected. Just wondering what the difference was?

    Is the firewall messing it up at all?

    And you can actually download Limewire pro... off of Limewire!

    I don't know. How would I check?

    It runs fine sometimes and then doesn't at others, and I don't change any of my firewall settings.

    Well it is doubtful. But check the firewall allows it - probably under something like "program control".
    ah the irony.

    Its great, no?

    Mine sometimes sits and says it's connecting for ages but never does. I just close it and open it again.
