Ok, I am now connected. I have done everything in my power to get back on limewire. I finally got a good connection, all bars green, and fast searches. I can click on a song to download, click on the yes portion of the lic agreement and then nothing. The song either says connecting(never connects),or says waiting in busy host, or need more sources. Every once in a while one song will download. Please help

I have a gateway laptop, windows xp, high speed dsl, windows firewall, F-PROT antivirus.
Thanks

Lots of fakes out there. Beware of Fake files in search results

See these links for tips: 1. How to find music

2. See Gnutella Forums - View Single Post - download probs (searching)

3. Hostiles List

I'd also suggest those search result with files less than 1,000 KB, ban those users. Right click them in search results & choose ban host.
