Angry Experiencing Same Issue

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Vista
2. What firewalls you have? Norton Protection Center - I have configured it to allow LimeWire all the time
3. How much ram? 2gig
4. Hard Disk space available? 500gig
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Webstar DPC2100
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? house
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 4.12.11 Java 1.6.0
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Brighthouse
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? It says "Your test worked!"
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. NO
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem that started when I downloaded he lastest version after moving to a computer with VISTA.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? No brick, have turbo charged connection.

I can search for files just fine, when I try to download one, the status says 'connecting', then eventually 'need more sources'. This happens for files that show over 100 sources. My connection is a 'Turbo Charged Connection'. The first day I had LimeWire on the Vista computer, it was an older version, which worked fine. I paid to upgrade to the latest version and that is when this issue began. Is this an issue with the lastest verison? If so, should I get a previous version?
