Can't Download. I am having a problem. I am connected and I am uploading to other users. I can't seem to get through the "need more sources" state for downloads. I was using an older version of LimeWire and this started happening. I decided to upgrade to PRO. I upgraded and I am still having the same problem.
I deleted the software and all of the folders and reinstalled the software. Still the same problem. I pass the connectivity test. I have an HP computer running Windows XP Media Center edition. I have 2 gig of ram, 300Gig HD with plenty of room and an Intel 3.12 Ghz dual core processor. I am running Norton Internet Security 2005 and have allowed LW access on all ports.
I have automatic updates from HP, Norton and Windows running. This seems to make changes to my PC every week or so.
I have a cable modem and a LinkSys 4 port router/hub. The router firmware has been updated within the last six months. This change did not affect my earlier version of LimeWire.
I have a "Turbo-Charged Connection" indication on the bottom left of my screen in LimeWire. The globe is clean. There is a green circle with 2892 in it just to the right of the globe.
I think I have an issue with perhaps a setting in the LW options, but nothing I have tried has made any difference. I have tried downloads from multiple numbers of sources and still no luck. I'm stuck at "Need More Sources". I've been stuck for 5 days now...
My only thought is to do a system restore to see if one of the updates has affected the connectivity of LW.
Any thoughts??? |
