There are numerous Windows-based open source alternatives that work
better and aren't spywware/adware infested.

Shareaza
eMule
eMule Plus
ML Donkey....

It's not a "download sight[sic]"

And Shareaza, eMule, MLDonkey or KCEasy are MUCH better.

Re: limewire

So did you try the workaround I suggested earlier,
download it with a different browser?

RE: limewire

After you install this update, a CD device or a DVD device may not work
correctly. If you select the device in Device Manager and then view the
properties for the device, you may receive the following error message:
The software for this device has been blocked from starting because it is
known to have problems with Windows. Contact the hardware vendor for a new
driver. (Code 48)
This problem occurs because a legacy application may install drivers that
are incompatible with Windows Vista.
For more information about how to work around this problem, click the
following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Re: limewire

I got it to install, but now I can't download, it says I have a firewall in
place, which I do but I had a firewall on xp and didnt have problems, plus on
vista I have allowed limewire p2p to work and not be afffected by a firewall.

Re: limewire

Vista's firewall is more stringent than XP's firewall.

Since I don't use Limewire (I use uTorrent), I can't offer more
specific help. Perhaps there is a Limewire forum that can
give you advice.

RE: limewire

When running these P2P try opening the program as Run As Administrator.

So, you all "know it alls" don't know how to solve the OP's problem and
trying to ridicule him. I expect much respectable response, I would have
helped him but unfortunately I don't know the remedy.

Re: limewire

I have a HP Pavilion dv7 laptop running windows home premiumx64 and am
running Limewire Pro 5.0 and have had no issues, got to the Limeware web
site and download the software from them and make sure you delete and other
limewire program you already tried to installs.

He's pissed off at Vista because he can't d/l his whack-off videos. His
problem is with Limewire, not Vista. I'm trying to determine if his name
relates to his age or IQ.

What does MICROSOFT have to do with a pirating program? Common sense, girl.
Use it!

Stupid person you are! You need to learn to read and use 'common sense'
(your words, bozo). She said she was having a downloading problem. I'd
guess you don't know the answer either. I know I don't, but I know
stupidity when I see it!

Do you have a reading comprehension problem also? The OP said she was
having a 'downloading' problem from within Vista. Sheesh.....
