me again! just to update you in the ongoing saga of me probably breaking my computer! i did all that you said and then it worked! but only for a while. it is now coming up with every single song i try to download 'need more sources'. so ive got the java thing, downloaded offline, configured my firewall (even though it says that im still behind one, i assume that that is the one in my student halls), right clicked on limewire and configured it to windows 2000, and deleted the .limewire file, all this whilst limewire was closed....help!
