Hi Stief
thanks for the suggestions so far - I followed the entire exchange of comments with Ebene1073 – but it seems it does not resolve my own problem.
I also managed to download the picture MagBay.jpg as suggested and this worked alright.

I forget to mention that I am usin LimeWire Pro 3.8.7

I actually did not mention that I had some problems with the Airport system last week as it suddenly cut me out and I could not access the internet anymore– I had to reinstall the Airport software and had to fiddle around until it worked again. I am not sure on the timing but it could be that LIMEWIRE did not work anymore after I reinstalled the Airport software once more.

Further Information
- When I perform a search, the LIMEWIRE icon on the right hand top corner starts to turn on all searches except for AUDIO and VIDEO
- The searches are running through (the search colum in the header starts to fill with blue colour until the end) but no results appear at all

Furthermore, changes which I observed, between BEFORE (search was working ok) and AFTER (does not work anymore) are as follow:
- the Monitor page shows no incoming searches at all anymore (although I ticked the enable button) - before this worked alright and showed a lot of searches going on
- the upload section (of Monitor) did not show any uploads before nor does it now (i.e. I assume that either nobody likes my songs – I offer about 2062 songs – or that they are not able to access my database somehow)

I also ensured that I ticked the Gnutella/Limwire (6346) button on the Firewall page (Sharing).

I fear I am running out of options here.

I try to attach some files showing the status ot LimeWire and the Terminal command which I executed.

Hope this helps.
