I checked to makesure limewire wasnt behind my firewall which it wasnt. I thought so far so good!

I then got my friend to search for one of my files to see if he could find it and he couldnt which i thought was rather odd, I also left the pc on for over 24 hours and never had one upload.

Can someone tell me why this could have happened??
Try putting all the folder you have on that drive in a folder. Then choose to share that folder + all subfolders.

Another thing that may be the reason is that an entire drive takes a long time to be hashed for sharing depending on size.

Try having your friend direct connect to you and see if he can then see the files.
