hi..ooops sorry..sent last one too early.. as i was going to say... im still experiencing problems connecting to LW.. i cant seem to get it to get past 'connecting' or if it does.. it doesnt get any stronger connection than' poor'... i currently have 13 songs in my d/l list.. with 10 of them being incomplete.. and 3 not yet started d'ling.. would this have some effect on it? should i keep it to just a couple at a time? today.. i left LW connecting whilst reading through the newer posts to see if there was a solution already posted before bothering you yet again... and kept checking to see if it had connected... after about 15 minutes.. it actually had!.. am i just being impatient?? and perhaps it will take this long all the time?? sorry to keep bothering you.. but i am still keen to stay with LW and hope you can advise me on this.. ty in advance for you assistance... MAz from Australia

15 minutes is to long. Did you install the patch which Zap suggested? SP2 limits you connection to ten and the patch should fix it. Try it, if you have still problems you know where you can find us.
