No search works, nothing. How do I get it to work again? I might have been messing with the Options beforehand. But I did a Restore Defaults, I even did a re-install of Limewire, my internet service works fine, but still no search results.

Any help?? Thanks.
I'm on Limewire Pro 4.8.1, eMac 1.42, 10.4.2 OSX.

Whilst LW is closed, delete your LW preferences found here: /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire

I guess there's a possibility your isp provider has started using a p2p filter like sandvine or other & may be targetting everyone or selected users that they're aware use p2p sharing. But we don't know that yet. Who is your isp by the way?

OK, so I did that (moved to Trash everything in that folder), then restarted Limewire. Now, it crashes a couple seconds after it opens, soon after it finishes showing the connection status in lower left corner of window (It showed "Quality: Connecting, Sharing: 4/ 960) and then crashes. I restarted my Mac but same thing.

Was I supposed to throw away everything in Preferences?

Hmm that's unexpected! I don't know why that should happen.

There are some mac maintenance things you can run thru:
1. SAFE Boot & Repair Permissions

2. Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption

If still problems then trash the program folder & re-install. If still problems, try the beta.

Which version of Java are you using by the way; 1.4.2 or 1.5? Did you do anything to the system lately such as updates?

Ok, well the crash stopped happening, all by itself. But I still can't get any results whatsoever. The only updates are the Software Updates from Apple.

The Quality status says "TurboCharged".

Next thing I tried was to download the beta Limewire 4.9.7. The first search I did after instaling it, it worked beautifully! But after that, no search worked at all, not even the same search that worked the first time!! I did not change a thing; didn't Quit and start up again or anything. Only the first search worked, and then nothing.

What gives????

BTW, Comcast is my isp.
