Try this :-

In Limewire go tools -> Options -> Searching -> Basic & check whether the show License warning box is ticked. If it does, untick it -> Apply -> Ok

Also this link Beware of Fake files in search results

If it happens again, go to View menu, choose to Show Connections window. Make a note of your ultrapeer ip addresses you are connected to in that window. Then close LW, wait 5-10 mins & then connect again. If same problem with searching, try removing some of the ultrapeers if they are the same as before. It's worth a try.
