Limewire shows it's searching but it nothing ever shows up in the results window, or in the genre, album or artist windows on the side. I'm not all that computer savvy, Limewire has worked for me in the past but was deleted from my computer. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, restarting my computer, deleting all cookies, I just don't know what else to do. Help?

What happens when you try to download? Do files move into the download pane? If they don't, try the advice here.

Or, do files sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever? If that's the case, you're probably seeing fake files.

If you're searching for music files, use the All Types search & search for artist or album rather than song title. Go for a file with 10 sources or less...stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources.
If you're searching for video files, always chech the file with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake.

Check out the threads below for more info & tips, including how to use Bitzi.
