Default "Need More Sources"

Okay, I have had a problem with most P2P programs for some time now. At first Limewire worked like a charm, I loved it to death, but all of a sudden one day it wouldn't connect. It kept saying *Connecting* but alas, nothing. To say the least I was heartbroken and for many a weeks I didn't want to try any other programs. I finally got up the courage to try another program, and I went through a lot of shitty programs before I found Ares Galaxy. Man oh man, it wasn't another Limewire, but it worked. A few weeks later.... *Connecting*

Son of a bitch, now Ares didn't work either. Once again, I was heartbroken. Neither Limewire nor Ares worked. I talked to some people and they told me that Limewire Pro might work, so I bought it, and now I can connect (after about 30 minutes) but the searches are limited. I am finding about 75% less songs than I use to and even if I download the one with the most number of sources it gives me the error "Need More Sources"

Now I know that if you try to download a song with 1-5 sources you probably won't get through, but a song that had at least 12 sources would be downloaded in about 2 minutes, and ones with 35 sources with done within 55 seconds. Now, with the limited number of downloads and low sources, I can't complete any downloads, much less start any.

Summary: finally got Limewire to connect, now EVERYTHING asks for more sources, despite having 30+ sources
