What does this mean? Is it the equivalent of the older Limewire's "Can not download"? I can't find any documentation on the message... will Limewire continue to check for online sources if left connected?

Any advice greatly appreciated!

Awaiting sources means that you've tried to Resume the file. This can be effective but not the most effective method of finding sources. If done to all the incomplete files can have side effects of using up all of LW's & possibly your computer's resources. It may also affect LW's connection quality. A manual search is the best way to find new/fresh sources.


See some hints: A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities.
