I've forwarded all the right ports, turned off most of my firewalls, and I even installed different versions of Overnet. But, I just can't seem to get the button on the left turn green or the program to connect. What can I do to fix this?

Hello!

Why do you have different versions installed that might cause more problems then it solves so uninstall all versions so that you have a clean system and then reinstall the latest one.

But first before doing that make sure that it really cant connect. You have to be patient with Overnet it can take a couple of minutes before it is connected!.

Tmpj&#39;s version of "Overnet Lite v.53" has been doing this for me lately as well. I had to swith to Overnet v53a to see any sort of connection at all. Even then the number of connections I am able to make at any given time is no more than 10-12 with the average being 5.

Able to connect with it however downloads are slow as hell. <_<

Have been fighting with Overnet since yesterday, it just will not connect. We are getting grey hair over this, it just does not want to connect.
Any solutions for this, please
