program download errors!
 

I LOVE LimeWire and had planned to actually purchase the product when I returned home from summer vacation. It had been working flawlessly for about 3 months. When I returned home I couldn't get the program to show the SEARCH button no matter what I looked for. I trashed the program and tried downloading it again several times. Now whenever I download the program I get words that are chopped in half, just the first letter of words, etc. What's wrong?
I've been forced to use another program that is nowhere near as good as LimeWire. Can you help me?

Thanks!
