LimeWire

I wanted to download Lime Wire, I have Vista and McAfee security on my computer.
When I download Lime Wire, everything works fine until the screen appears where you can save your lime wire files, click Next and the progress bar starts then the program stops just to settle. No sign of wanring or of fire not wall blocks. Nothing...
Anyone know why? Thanks for your help.

Hello twss22,

Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers forum.

As Malkeleah said, since you have problems to install LimeWire I would also suggest that you post in the forums of LimeWire.
You do not have ' indicate which version of LimeWire you are trying to install and have it stop. LimeWire experts are more familiar with their product
and the problems that users have when they install.

Click here to post on the forums of LimeWire.

Good luck and it will be useful.

    and as for Limewire.

    Quote - LimeWire is under an order of the Court dated Date 26 October 2010 to stop distribution of the LimeWire software. A copy of the injunction can be foundhere. LimeWire LLC, its directors and officers, take all measures to comply with the injunction. We learned very recently unauthorized Internet applications designed to use the LimeWire name. Require us that anyone who uses the LimeWire software, name or brand in order to upload or download copyrighted worksin any manner cease and desist to do. We also remind you that unauthorized uploading and downloading of copyrighted works is illegal.

    So when you download the files from. Most likely your frostwire downloading is damaged or contains a virus, depending on where you guessed it.

    Beware such programs can leave you vulnerable.

    All peer to peer music programs to download from internet to download viruses and problems in your system. These programs are always the cause of poor performance because they use your computer as a bridge to share information with others too. In other words the songs and files that you get are coming on other computers like yours.

    Visit the resources most trustworthy as Pandora.com, Hulu.com or Netflix for your support.

    It's not good news for many, unfortunately it's true.

  • Security settings won't allow download LimeWire

    I am trying to download limewire and some updates and I get a msg saying that my security settings won't allow it. I tried everything, I am running vista.

    If you sure that the download is safe you could try adding the download site as a Site approved in Internet Explorer.  You can also try to disable "protection Mode" in IE.  See IE / Tools / Internet Options / Security.

    You can also try of in "Safe Mode with network.

  • Cannot find files Limewire on PC after download

    I upgraded 5.5.13 Limewire 5.5.16, and I can't find my downloaded files (movies and songs).

    with all older versions that they were all saved in Documents > Limewire, but now, I searched the entire computer (start > Search toolbar) and nothing comes up.

    Please, you can try to help me as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Thank you!

    We have kept away from your original problem, I refer you to my post from Thursday, October 7, 2010 06:05, I put forward a possible solution for you to check.  All of my following messages related to this first proposal, which proved to be difficult to follow and thus eliminate as a cause.  You have now put my mind at rest and I think that it has been eliminated as a cause of your problems.  Internet Explorer protected mode has been tied up with this theory failed.  I'm sorry to mislead you on "garden path".

    Another idea, when you search for these downloads Limewire on your machine did you research looking into the system and hidden folders?  It may be necessary to show both hidden and system files and also uncheck 'Hide known file types' in Control Panel / folder Options / view, to have search search everywhere.  Rather than searching in the Start Menu / SEARCH box (if you are), load your user (C:\Users\devorah) file and use the search box located in the top right of the window.  If she fails to find anything, try to click on 'Computer' under ' search in '.

    "By default, the Limewire save the destination of the file is"C:\Users\Username\Documents\LimeWire\Saved"."

    Are there preferences or parameters seen from LimeWire that might give you a clue as to where the files should be or are being saved?

    See if this free research program can dig their place for you.
