where'd all the files go?
 

when i was on limewrie, i right-clicked on one of my sharing folder and pressed "stop sharing." now i cant find any of the files in that folder. did i delete it? please respond asap .. and tell me how i can retrieve it or if they are gone.

No, they are still there. You can share them again by going to the options. Once shared they will reappear in LimeWire but they were not deleted at any point.
