Do you mean that you've upgraded to LW Pro from basic?? Have you ever been able to download files? There are heaps of fake files throughout the network & these typically have lots of sources but will sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever. Check out the threads below for info & tips (make sure to use Bitzi to check files before download).

However, if absolutely every file needs more sources (even old songs with a single modem source), try this: Delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things. If you're not sure of your settings, go through LW's tools > options & write them all down, so that you can reset things later.
