Question Computer info to help me with Questions?

This is most of my computer information. (Thanx again Hobo)
I am new to computers & downloading entertainment. Could someone help me?

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Windows XP Home Edition , Version 2002 service pack
2. What firewalls you have? McAffe
3. How much ram?Hewlitt Packard Pavilion, ADM Athlon(tm) 3200+2.19 GHz, 512 MB of RAM
4. Hard Disk space available? Not sure where to look for this?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Not sure where to lookk for this?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LW Pro
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? AOL
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? Have done this twice. Works fine
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. I think I am sharing?
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Just recently. I am new. Worked great in the begining.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? No. I turned off my firewall.


The LW Basic worked fine for me at first & then I got the pro.
I downloaded some music I thought my parents might enjoy.
My Dad listens to it fine on his computer, but my Mom, it will not play in her truck. Why?
A few days ago I was downloading music for myself. It gets half way downloaded & then it says waiting for source, can't find source & then nothing happens. I tried leaving it like this for a day or so & nothing happens.
