Default no search results

HELP! When I open up limewire, it says I'm connected and I have it under exceptions for my firewall, but when I type something in to start searching for it no results come up. Does anyone know what the problem is?

My operating system is Windows XP Professional. I'm using limewire 4.14.12

Providing LW has more than one green connection bar, try the fixes below.

1. In LW go tools > options > searching > basic & check whether the 'show license warning' box is ticked. If it does, untick it > Apply > ok...see if that makes any difference.

2. Problems with the search

3. Delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will change all of your settings within LW's options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things to the way you like them.
