I'm having this problem too, and it's really screwing me over. Gah! Frustrations!

I figured out the problem! Go to your connections tab. (if you don't see the tab click on View, then Show/Hide and then Connections) Any server that starts with the numbers 204 blah blah blah is BAD. Remove it and Limewire will automatically detect a new one. Keep doing this repeatedly until all these bad servers are gone. You should be able to search again.

Another way to check a bad server is by clicking on the server and then clicking browse host. If you get an error msg, remove the server.

Worked like a charm thanks. I was getting nothing but that fixed it. Is it a bug or something? I just installed this new version the other day.

OMG!!! Thank you so much!!! I've been struggling with this kind of problem for the longest time! I don't know if anyone else had this additional symptom, but, my Limewire kept telling me it was detecting a firewall when it wasn't searching. I tried every combination of deleteting and adding exceptions for the Windows firewall, and completely uninstalling my security software, but nothing helped! Nothing accept this! Thanks again!

hi thanks for the tip. I am doing that right now and well it is just going through alot of numbers. I am not all that computer savvy but should I be doing something else or should I just leave it alone?

hey does anyone know what to do about this message that pops up when I start to search for something. it says: only search results with a "lock" are offical limewire communications and then more info. does anyone know what this means? how can i get rid of it?
