Limewire stopped getting internet connection? - 854 - 05-07-2014 08:45 PM
i have been having it for a while and al the sudden it stops getting internet connection. I think it might have to do with a virus scan i did. Anyone know how to get it back working?

When mine stopped working I had to go to internet options and lower my security settings to medium, it works just fine now, but I do not recommend leaving it that way do what you need to on limewire and then return your setting when they are done.

Sometimes, as your ISP and FBI is monitoring illegal downloads from Limewire and Bittorrent the signal gets interrupted or stopped as the IP addresses are being logged and tracked.
Usually closing your browser and then restarting your download or file sharing gets the connection re-established.
Good luck.
