Sorry ... I don't check my emails on a regular basis. But yes! I've tried all the suggested fixes and still no results. In many cases, those are my settings and it still does't work. So guess I'll just un- and re-install. Again. I've been using LW for several years now and this has been a chronic problem. Is there a "one time" fix or not??? I love LW (read "free"), but this little glitch is very frustrating.

I am aware Charter is not an especially p2p sharing friendly ISP. Problems 'might' be related to Charter.

Deleting your LW preferences might help.

Occasionally removing the occasional Ultrapeers from your Connection window may help to remove poor behaving or spam UP's. Especially those that are older than LW 4.18.8 version.

I have heard searching the same thing over & over can for some odd reason get your specific search temporarily banned from a particular Ultrapeer. So waiting several hours or until the next session on LW might fix that.

Edit: seems WW's fix worked for you. Good to hear.

(BTW the reason I edited out your email address is to stop the people who scan forums for email addresses to sell to marketers.)

Thanks for "editing" my email address! And, yes, at least for now, WW's fix seems to be working. I'll keep your tips (and anyone else's!) in mind for future reference.

Happy Holiday!

i am using LW 4.16, i dont see any preference or peers

whats wrong here

Lord:

Lordy lordy lordy!! WW's fix worked - once. But now, tonite, I go to LW and once again: No results. So I went back to your advice and OMG what have you done to my computer??!?! I uninstalled all my Java and renstalled, offline= per your suggestion, and now everything looks like Ms. Pacman. I uninstalled & reinstalled LW and still can't download. So, as a last resort, I tried a System Restore, and I keep getting an error msg telling me the system was unable to restore to an earlier date. And I've tried it like 3 times! So I've reinstalled Java (ON-line) so at least my graphics are cool, but I still can't get LW to download any tunes. You "sound" knowledgeable, but it's f***king up my system. I'm almost afraid to ask if you have any more suggestions!!!!!

And, oh yeah I almost forgot to mention ... at one point in my "uninstall-reinstall-follow-your-directions gig, I reinstalled LW and it suddently showed all my incompletes at 100%. Not! What up with that?

Gee, thanks ...

Now, since following your advice, I not only can't download from LW, but you've screwed my Activex, or whatever. I can't download any pics from websites.

I'm pretty sure following your advice was a major boo-boo!!
