I told him to do that earlier - sharing was enabled

I just updated to iTunes 9 as a test. My options are ticked to allow sharing with iTunes. My 'LimeWire Tunes' shows as per usual.

But - if I don't have files showing in Public Shared in My Library (ie being shared with the world), they don't show in my LimeWire Tunes in iTunes.
Add everything to Public Shared & it shows up in the LW playlist in iTunes. So looks like it's not just iTunes sharing within Options but adding to Public Shared as well.
