hmmm..bearshare!! looks like im on the wrong board. i had limewire basic but upgraded it to pro today. the basic was fine but since i've installed the pro it seems to have ground to a halt. i've checked my norton security center and allowed limewire.
I also looked at the connections. several ultra peers but very little band width and high percentage of dropped files.
example of their bandwidth looks like this!

0.029/0.005kb/s

dropped 56%

why is this happening?

thanks!
