Will not let me download anything...LIMEWIRE
 

everytime i try to search for a name and click search.....a yellow caution bar comes to the top saying: "Only search results with a security lock are official LimeWire communications" Then its says more info...and i tried adding limewire to exceptions for my firewall....still the same results...Need help really bad. Thank you

That padlock notice you see at the top of your searches is to notify you of a particular search result that contains a virus...
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...
