Your suggestion sounds great. I found the web site you suggested easily, but when I tried to apply some of the listed hosts, nothing happened. I punched the new host into the "auto-connect hosts" field and nothing happened. I punched the new host into the "connected hosts" and nothing happened. What am I doing wrong? As of this minute I have a file downloading from the last time I was able to connect, yet I cannot perform searches and LimeWire is listed as unconnected and I see a red dot. What's going on? Any help is greatly appreciated.
