Default LimeWire 2.7.3 download problems?

Is it just me or has anyone else been having problems getting files to actually download with the latest release? I was using 2.6.5, I think, and after I searched for some files, some would download and some would not. But now it seems that I can do a search, say I get about 20 results back. At least a few of these ppl should still be on when I immediately hit the download button (probabaly most of the ppl would still be online) but I always get that Requery Sent status. I don't get it, if I'm not going to be able to download the file why does it even show up in the results? I'm starting to get frustrated with LimeWire, I probably havent had but 2 or 3 successful downloads in the last week. Can anyone help? Thanks.

This might happen if you are trying to download from a firewalled host and the PUSH fails. This will not happen as often any more with the new GUESS system that will hopefully be released soon.

That's good to know! And thanks for the reply. But... Just out of curiosity - how come it did not happen before?

Ok. Something *MUST* be wrong with this version. It wasn't like this before. Here's what I did...

I faced my fears and downloaded BearShare. I do not really like the program but I wanted to try any other program and see if, maybe, the problem was my computer.

I am sure LimeWire is a far superior program but the fact is, I installed BearShare and over a dial-up connection I was able to download more stuff in a hour than with my LimeWire 2.7.3 PRO during the entire night (!!!).

Guys, I am still faithfull to LimeWire but... Would be nice to know that a bug, or bad code, or whatever was found in this new version and it's being taken care of!

What gives?
