What you have probably done is gone & downloaded the Basic version. That's why it asked you if you wanted to upgrade. For all updates, you always go to your personal download page because the program itself doesn't know what your personal download page is or where to find it. One way to check is go to the About LW under the LimeWire name on toolbar & see whether it says pro or not.

Thanks, I got another message that said to take the old shortcut and remove the old Limewire folder. This worked. Now I have pro up and running but it doesn't seem to increase speed. Infact everything that was dloading at 5-29 kbps is now 0-1. I'm on DSL

Thanks.
