Hi rmgallant,


You'll always see"Enabling Open Information Sharing" at the top of LW!
Do you mean that the search is taking a long time? Is your LW connected (all green or blue connection bars)? Are you getting any search results? If you're connected but not getting search results, try these fixes:

1. In LW go tools > options > searching > basic & check whether the 'show license warning' box is ticked. If it does, untick it > Apply > ok...see if that makes any difference.

2. Problems with the search

3. 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 change all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things.

If that's not your problem at all, can you be more specific about what's going wrong?
