hi- need some help pls..i have just updated to the latest version of limewire basic and am experiencing the problem i had hoped to fix,ie CANNOT START NEW DOWNLOADS..it's as if the icon doesn't work, it won't register downloads.

i cleared all (mostly unstarted) incomplete downloads from the library in the hope that would enable fresh downloads. this had no effect so i uninstalled and installed the new version, to no avail. what to do? thanks!
