![]() OK, well this morning I turned the computer on and put itunes on and listened to some music and thought of a song I heard yesterday on the radio, so i decided to download it. I opened Limewire and searched the song. Quite a few came up and about half of them had bitrates. I picked the on at the top with 121#. This didn't have a bitrate, and when i clicked download 'Connecting...' came up and was there for about 10 minutes until i canceled it. I tried the one with 101# and this one had a bitrate of 128. Again the same thing happened. It was fine last night as i downloaded three songs. I don't know whats happened. I haven't made any changes. Due to the problem i have re-installed Limewire and been on options and restored defaults. Still this has made no difference. Any help is kindly apprciated. Thanks. 1. OS version? Windows XP Home Edition 2. What firewalls you have? I Don't Know Specifically but there is one on my router 3. How much ram? 512mb 4. Hard Disk space available? 96.5Gb 5. Connection type?

Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
