hi everybody iv'e not been here in a while ( if it aint broke and all that ) my hard drive gave up the ghost and stopped working last week loosing me all my stored stuff that wasnt backed up limewire pro / nero ,itunes library etc ive managed to get most stuff put back onto my new hard drive including l/w 4.18.8 as i preffer this to version 5 the problem is i am able to download from l/w itself but when i try to download from bt junkie/mininova etc its opening the window what program do i want to use to open the files i select l/w then they drop into the downloading box at the bottom but then all i get is need more sources or locating sources and nothing starts downloading ive tried quite a few files but still the same messages appear im using vista bye the way same as before any help would be great i tried using u torrent and they downloaded but i using prefer l/w as its more user friendly :confused:

:welcomegnut: jamie1. Sorry for your misfortune with the HDD.

I can't speak on the troubles that your experiancing with LW, well I guess I can, DON'T Use LW when D/Ling Torrents. This is why you can't find sources for your D/L's. LW is Banned on Most trackers and it's more trouble than it's worth. The Only way is to either use uTorrent or Vuse when d/ling torrents. uTorrent is about as simple as it gets, just give it some time.

Going this route is also a little safer as you have the chance to read comments from other members about the torrent that your interested in. With LW your just out there, unless you try Bitzi.

This is only my opinion and I'm Not trying to change yours. :)

If you deside to go back to uTorrent and need help, Please don't hesitate to PM me if you have any issues. I will try to help you in any way I can :)

i read another post on here which seemed to have the same problem as me ,the reply was to go into various files then delete the l/w program forcing it to reset itself which i tried and it seems to have worked but if it fails again i'll give utorrent another go cheers for the reply :idea:
