Hi,
I have been using Limewire for over a year now with no problems at all.
However, all of a sudden (Since yesterday) it will not let me download, when I click on a file I want to download it just says connecting. The status bar at the bottom says I have Turbo Charged connection and is turquoise in colour.
Please could someone tell me why this has happened all of a sudden and how can I get back to how it was before.
Thank you.
Denise

PS: I have tried deleting Limewire and reloading it.

It could be fake files you are seeing in your results...

It could be that you have connected to Fake Ultrapeers as well...

Try this and see if it helps...
Go to your connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it...
Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more...

If you keep getting the same hosts over and over, add the IP numbers into your Host Filter...
Tools > Options > Filters and select the Host Filter and add these IP's into it and select apply...

It could even be your ISP...As they have a Fair Use Policy in place...

Your Modem/router also has a Nat Firewall, that is why you are seeing the wall in front of the globe...
These are your instruction on Port Forwarding...
Port Forwarding for the BT Home Hub
