When I search the number of hosts is visible and downloads go at a resonable speed. I would just like the stars to show up in the collum under rating but nothing is there,

Any tips?

Do you have the option to show the stars on? Do this, when you have your Limewire search open, In the bar that has: Name, Type, Size, Speed , Birate, ect., right click there and an options box should open and then click Quality and it should bring up the stars. There you go!

I have the quality tab showing but there is nothing in the coulum.

Wow, then i don't know what to tell you. It should be showing the stars. Sorry.
