Hi

my client says we are on Block 135729

wallet.dat is located (XP) under: C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application data\BitCoin

for the connection problem you can try to add nodes manually to the bitcoin client:

bitcoind.exe -addnode=64.22.103.150  -addnode=109.75.176.226  -addnode=178.79.147.99  -addnode=173.242.112.53  -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=142.58.248.28

the set in tor use tcp con  127.0.0.1    ; control port there is 9050

you can't see it, when you have hidden your system-files.
press windows-key + R and type "%appdata%" then press enter. now your appdata folder should pop up.

cheers iro

Hi,

you can also try the "show all"-option in your folder menu. Should do well, after that you'll see the wallet.dat.

and thxx yes hehe..i see it..the wallet dat   

tell me if i take that file..and bring it to my  e part. 
can i safely delite the program , re install. put this wallet dat back  [ where are my 12 bitc on]
and i am ok.?


the only problem , i have, that i send 1.5 from a online wallet to my   , home wallet , what happens with that?

if you dont redeem , a transfer is it going back after a wile?

my vers  2.23 had before 2.21

0.3.23 or 2.23?

in options ;  i  have connect  though socked4 proxy  ip 127.0.0.1  pot 8333

Can you connect to other sites through your proxy? You want to use the SOCKS port with tor, which will be 9050, 9100, or something like that. Do you have connect lines configured? Do you have irc peer discovery enabled? Are you out of disk space?

can i safely delite the program , re install.

You're using Windows. Reinstalling will only make things worse.

the only problem , i have, that i send 1.5 from a online wallet to my   , home wallet , what happens with that?

if you dont redeem , a transfer is it going back after a wile?

Once the transaction appears in a block and that block is confirmed, it is a done deal. The wallet is just a keyring. As long as you don't lose the wallet file, you will be fine.

hi,
@ . which will be 9050   thats the one, i have it now on 8333. i will put ti back on  9050.i had 2 conn now
wen i go to 9050 its  ; 0 conn .

@ Do you have connect lines configured ;      no .
@ Do you have irc peer discovery enabled  ;  no    
@Are you out of disk space  , no its ok.


but if; if you dont redeem , a transfer is it going back after a wile?


so i must change the irc peer but how i conf  lines ?


thxx he.  omehenk

Nope.

so i must change the irc peer but how i conf  lines ?

Maybe, maybe not. If you want to try and see if it helps, you can edit bitcoin.conf, which is probably right next to your wallet file, and restart the daemon.

[omehenk]

mm lol..

Note the Bitcoin Client go on the IRC to find some other nodes. It's not possible through TOR.

If a connection to the IRC server cannot be established (like when connecting through TOR), an in-built node list will be used and the nodes will be queried for more node addresses.
