Hello everyone

I have a similar problem to what others have reported. Attempted a download using 4.9 (I think) and started to get redirected to Napster. So after some initial research I downloaded the latest version. However most files don't seem to download, I get the 'need more sources' message all the time, even for files which didn't seem that rare ( I mainly use LW for 'live' version of tracks, which are not generally available commercially).

I use Mac OS 10.3.9.

I get 5 bars on my connection menu and no brick wall on the globe - just like I always have. I am behind a firewall but I have UPNP enabled so LW has always worked.

Out of desperation, to see if I could download ANY files, I tried to download something very popular (won't say what). That worked.

I doubt that the files I tried to download were fakes, as they are generally files that are not available commercially. They all indicated at least 20 or 30 sources but not 100 so I doubt they are 'planted fakes'.

Any ideas?
