Can someone please help?!?!

New to limewire after being recommended by a friend. Every time i search for anything i get loads of results however when i try download, it comes up 'not enough sources' every time. Yet when i disable my firewall / antivirus protect they download fine, and carry on downloading once i re-anable my firewall/internet security. i've read the other threads and can't see anything specific to this. would be very gratefull for any help, been playing about all day now Thanks!!!!!

OS - Windows XP Pro
Notron Internet security / firewall
Latest version of limewire
ISP - NTL Bband. (internet explorer) think thats all?

Whatever you do dont disable your AV, you can pick up to many viruses that way, especially using a p2p network...

Cant you configure the firewall to exclude LW...?

Go and have a look at the stickie at the begining of open dicussion a few things to consider while configuring LW for optimal performance..

ok thanx. i'll take a look now

Thank'ya very much, that seems to have cracked it. i thought i'd allowed it in norton, but found a couple more limewire programs that also needed to be allowed. cracked it now and happily downloading away. Cheers!!
