im new here.... i started using limewire about.... lets say about 2 months ago. i know what to do on it & stuff.... but there's a problem....

you know those little green bars at the bottom that actually turn green when your connected on limewire & can download stuff? yeah, well, only the 1st one's green & the rest are red.... i'm already signed onto the internet before i sign on to limewire & nothings happening... i cant download any more new songs!!!!

(by the way, everything on my computer had to be erased... inculding the FIFTY songs i had already downloaded!!!!)

so could that be the problem?... the fact that my computer had to be completely erased & restarted... or is limewire just being evil?

is is confused... help me... please T_T
