I've had limewire for a little over a year and one day it just stopped getting internet connection. This happened on my old computer a few years ago, too. Why does this happen?
The Same thing Happened to me about a year ago. People kept on telling me that they caught me red handed and that I had to pay some fine. Others told me that My security program might have been blocking Lime wire. At the end, since I have Qwest, I used my IP adress to locate my Modem Configurations. After that I brought down the virus protection down a nudge so Lime wire could Work. To tell you the truth, idk what's wrong with your's, but I hope My story helps.
limewire works on one of my computers but if I download it on my other one it doesn't work. it appears that they stopped it from working on new downloads, but if you already had it before then it works as it always did. if you download carefully you won't get a virus.
