Default Downloading...or lack there of

When I try to download music, my computer attempts to connect to others, but can't connect to any, I've tried different downloads, sizes. My internet connection works great, I have no firewalls up, not even the windows fire wall, my connection to the network is "very strong", and yet everytime I start the download it goes down to the downloads, acts like it will connect, then I start seeing, Connecting 10, 11, and so on, until finally it says, need more resources. Anyone have an idea?

What you are seeing are probably Fake Files. Try these suggestions.

What I have done that works really well is to go to Tools > Options > Filter > Keywords and then add these file extensions: .wma, .exe, .rar, .html, .com, .zip, .mov. Be sure to tick apply and O.K. There are a ton of fake and corrupt files with these extensions. I will only download mp3 files that are larger than 2000kb - 3000kb. Also make sure thay have a bitrate.
