Connecting but no downloads and no bitrate
 
Hi. I'm Axeman69. Now, that I've introduced myself, is there a way that I don't get the huge page at the top that tells me to post in the Introduction Forum that DOESN'T EXIST! ! ! !

Now, my real issues.

I've noticed a couple of issues since upgrading to 4.18.8. One, I can connect fine. All green bars, but no matter what I try to download, it says connecting, then Needs More Sources. Also, the bitrate of the file I'm trying to download is not showing up.

TIA,

Axe.

OK. Ignore the first part. I don't get that page anymore. :)

Welcome to the Forums. LoL
Almost had a Ruff start right out of the Shoot. Huh....

Now to your issue. The Gnutella Network is Loaded with Viruses, Worms, Trojans, Spam, Fakes, and Corrupt Files. Prolly what you're finding.
Here are a few Links that will help combat some of these issues and will show what to look out for.

* WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of ! *

Glad you got it sorted, but....
Its still a Good idea to Read through those Links I gave you, just to get familiare with whats out there and the potential of becoming Infected. Always Scan EVERYTHING you D/L with a Good AV before Opening. :)
