All my shared audio files are gone!
 

I just downloaded the new 2.1 version of limewire. In the process of moving the new file to a different location, a message popped up asking me if I wanted to replace the existing file with the new one. I clicked "yes" and not only did it replace, but all my previously downloaded shared audio files disappeared! Is there any way to retrieve these audio files back or do I have to re-download everything again?? Why didn't these files move with the new update? HELP!!

You can only replace files with the same name so if your music isn't in the new version it should still be in the shared folder of the old version.

In reply to "efield's" comment, my shared folder of the old version is simply gone. This happened after I moved the new version to the location where my old version was. I didn't delete anything and there wasn't anything in my trash. I searched my drive for those files and they weren't found. I play my music through Mac's iTunes and though the songs are part of iTunes library, the mp3 files lived in Limewire's shared folder. If I click on one of those songs to play on iTunes, it now tells me that song file cannot be found.
