I installed LimeWire and I can not get anything at all. Nothing comes up for anything I type in. There is a yellow bar across the top and it has a picture of a lock and says " only search results with (picture of the lock) are official LimeWire communications." No matter what I put in it will not give any results at all. Please Help!!

Is your LW connected to the network (how many green connection bars do you see)? If you're connected, try this for your problem of no search results.

If that doesn't help then delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 below.
Fixes for LimeWire
This will kill all of your settings within LW's options, you'll have to go back through & reset things afterwards

If LW isn't connected to the network, check out the sticky here

The orange warning banner with the padlock was added because there's a bogus LW update showing up in search results. It's a 75.7 KB .exe & shows up as "Urgent LW update - download & install now". If people download that thing they could end up infected. To try to prevent careless people from downloading a dangerous file, the warning banner was added to LW's interface.

The padlock symbol doesn't apply to music or video etc, only to LW updates
