A few suggestions b/c it could be anything that's wrong. Are you using a mainframe, camera computer, calculator or unix, cp/2 ... xcuse my sense of humour but it's hard to offer assistance if you don't tell us anything about your system. Forum rules to read before posting anything (which are listed at the top of every section of this forum):

Firstly, try trashing/deleting your LW preferences folder called
.limewire & use your OS search engine to find it. I'd direct you except I have not a clue what operating system you're using.
Where are you connecting from: home, school, work? What connection devices are you using: modem & router brand name & model numbers?
How many files are you attempting to dwnld at once. And You installed LW a couple of days ago, so how many incomplete files do you have? Did you attempt to 'Resume' them or did you manually search for their sources after you opened LW? It's often a good idea to wait a while, even up to an hour to allow LW to settle down if you have a great many incomplete files & it's having difficulty connecting.
