Answered via PM with advice to limit simultaneous downloads & check the other fixes here: If LW 5 Will Not Connect
And requested these details: System details - help us to help you -> Provide these details when you post!!!

Since you're seeing 12 or more hosts per file, sounds like you're downloading torrents. Does the same thing happen if you download a single file (just one download) from the Gnutella network (not a torrent file)?

LW isn't a good torrent client & is banned from some private trackers. Most people here would recommend either uTorrent or Vuze (formerly Azureus)
