allykk is flying high
Default Downloading 1 second then nothing!

Hi

I've got a problem with downloading.

I was downloading mp3's fine this afternoon then the next thing I know it kept saying 'need more sources' . For some reason my internet connection had gone and so I restarted but this did not resolve the problem.

Any ideas?! I don't understand how quite literally I was downloading a track then tried a different track and get stuck!

I'm running on
XP
2GBps broadband
256mb RAM
erm... need any more info?!

Thanks

I think your internet drop out has nothing to do with limewire, but when you keep seeing need more sources it more than likely means that they are fake files...
Fake files showing up in search results

I also noticed you said you see a wall in front of the globe, this can also cause some problems with connecting, speeds and downloading....
Make sure you have the zonealarm firewall properly configured to allow limewire...

Also your router has a built in Nat firewall and you should Port Forward to open up a port for limewire...
These are your instructions for your Netgear DG834G....
