Hi Vanessa. i am going to update thread with conf file however if you using windows or osx wallet should automatically as main dns seed node is hard coded. Open your debug.log file, paste context to pastebin and post link here - then its possible to see whats up
Here is sample conf you can use.
server=1
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password

http://pastebin.com/AXXGc0xeIn Windows simply remove - and use option you like by adding it to forexcoin.conf file. In Linux you can start QT for example as forexcoind -daemon -option1 -option2.
No connection.Where is the conf.file?
