all downloads corrupted
 
I have been a Limewire user for a few years and have never had any trouble.

I recently began my second year of college, which uses an ethernet connection to the internet.

Every audio file that I download is corrupted and loops, whether it be from a T3 connection or Cable/DSL and whether it has 2 or 20 sources.

Can anyone offer any advice for me?

Are you getting a corrupt file message? Have you tried disabling the LW player & making something else your default player? The LW player is pretty weak & can suffer badly if you're doing a lot of dowloading!

Otherwise, have a look through these threads

(you can try LOTR's experiment in the thread above & download a magnet link file... see if it's corrupted too)

I get the file corrupted message every time. I also use iTunes rather than the limewire media player

Go through those threads. There's one that mentions corruption problems because of a firewall... don't know if that could be a factor for you? Your college probably has a fairly powerful firewall!
Try the experiment of downloading a magnet link file... see what happens then.

The magnet link files were corrupted also. It must be something with the school's internet connection or firewall
