I've used Limewire for several months, but now all of a sudden, it won't connect me. After searching and finding my song, I hit download. Everything looks good, but it won't download. It just sits idol and says either, "Connecting, Need more sources or Waiting for sources". What is going on. I see that people are downloading from me.

What to do.....

Most likely the files you've been trying to downloaded are fake. Some organizations try to disrupt file sharing networks by flooding them with fake files. Info on them in this post: Recognising Fake files

This thread has a lot of good tips for finding files on LW: How to find music
