Talking Re: Download music

Here...
1.Start LimeWire
2.Wait for it to get connected on the Connections tab. To have enough data to search, look at the bottom until it says at least 3TB available. It will take few minutes, shorter with 1.5. (Don't keep pressing on Connect, it resets connections.)
3. Go to the search tab and enter the song you want. Notice the way Gnutella is, always search for "The Band" or "The Song" instead of "The Band-The Song".
4. When the results come in, look for a song to download. In 1.4, mainly look for 4-star cable or T1 songs, in 1.5, look for 4-star green cable or T1 connections. If you can't find a green one, it doesn't matter as 4-star. Also, if their IP in the Location column is red, it means that they are behind a firewall and you will have to "push" them for the file.
5. Double-click on the song you want and it will download it. Resume usually doesn't work, it will sometimes on 1.5. Also, in 1.5, you can Launch it before it's downloaded. 1.5 is very buggy, however.
If you have <u>any</u> questions, I will be happy to answer them.
