If you cannot use the Browse Host feature, it means that for one reason or another you cannot browse them This might be because they are behind a firewall, they may use a Client that is unbrowsable by Limewire, possibly they might not be sharing, but it would be totally wrong to assume they are not sharing.

The "cannot browse host" message appears, again for a number of reasons, and one of those is quite possibly that the host has JUST gone off line.

On the other side of the coin a host has been online all day today, showing Browse host and chat enabled. I can browse them no problem, but every time I try to download I get "need more sourses"

In short there are no exact answer. I hope this helps a bit.
