I figured out the problem! Go to your connections tab. (if you don't see the tab click on View, then Show/Hide and then Connections) Any server that starts with the numbers 204 blah blah blah is BAD. Remove it and Limewire will automatically detect a new one. Keep doing this repeatedly until all these bad servers are gone. You should be able to search again.
Another way to check a bad server is by clicking on the server and then clicking browse host. If you get an error msg, remove the server. |

Worked like a charm thanks. I was getting nothing but that fixed it. Is it a bug or something? I just installed this new version the other day.

OMG!!! Thank you so much!!! I've been struggling with this kind of problem for the longest time! I don't know if anyone else had this additional symptom, but, my Limewire kept telling me it was detecting a firewall when it wasn't searching. I tried every combination of deleteting and adding exceptions for the Windows firewall, and completely uninstalling my security software, but nothing helped! Nothing accept this! Thanks again!
