? Yellow box? Are you sure that's not the search results tab. That has an X in the corner.
It might be worth seeing the manual http://www.limewire.com/english/content/userguide.shtml

yeah when i try and search it come up with that

Lord of the Rings June 14th, 2006 05:13 PM

That's normal. Their just your search result. Choose a file you want to downld by selecting it from the search results, then press the Downld button. But stay away from files less than 2 MB (2,000 KB) as most of those are virus spam.

yeah but nothing comes up when it does that

Hmm try simplifying your searches. If it's music you're searching for, just search artist or title. And also try using the All Types search.

Just to check, go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Searching & make sure the no. of simultaneous searches is set to at least one or more.

Also, try this experiment: downld a magnet link from here & tell us what happens with regard to speeds & connection status: http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml

never mind it is working now
what does the red box with the X mean is that good or bad

Lord of the Rings June 14th, 2006 05:37 PM

That's simply the way they colour the search results tab. If you click the cross it will close/remove the search results. Red I think is the search tab that's open or that you're viewing at or vice versa.

Check this License requirement (click on link) & it will explain what you need to know.

BTW it's a good idea to have a look at the Stickies at the top of each section as they have answers to the most common questions on the forums. ;)

lorireynolds1989 you can find answers in the forum FAQ which can be found if you look at the top of this thread for a button link. But to start a new thread, go to the section you wish to post & click New Thread at the top-left of that window.
