I have had limewire basic since July '08 and have downloaded 50+ songs from it perfectly. But last night at 12:00 midnight, I tried to search for 3 fairly common songs from the 1980s but I had no luck. So I tried again the next morning at 11 and still no luck. I noticed that all the connection bars were green but the world had a brick wall on it. I thought usually even with the brickwall it still works? So, I deleted the entire limewire and made sure it was out of my PC, then I re-downloaded it. I did my 3 searches again and still no luck (this time at 2pm). The connection bars were green but the world had a brickwall. Is their something wrong that I'm not aware of? I have limewire basic 4.18.8 and my PC is an HP Pavilion dv9000.

Here were my searches:

"sparrows and nightingales"
"getta outta my dreams and into my car"
"on the tray - sandra"
"for tamme"

BTW, what are some tips to help your PC run well and not be prone to viruses with limewire?

thanks
