Patience my dear

This should be fixed in the newest version. Haven't tried it myself though.

Get it here or use your personal Pro download link if you bought Pro within the last 6 months

Angry ******* napster!

yea, me too. since napster is losing business to limewire, they hire 14 year olds to go in and find all of these songs and relist them under several different variations of file names, but they will hotlink to your internet browser and open napster. this is also proof of just how easily your computer can be accessed from someone else using limewire.

WHILE WE WAIT 4 THE NEW VERSION TRY THE DOWNLOADING THE NEWEST BETA OR THIS:

go down to the bottom of the page of search results in lw, and try downloading the files that don't have a rediciously high number of users (less than 50). normally the napster ones will be like the first 20 on the top of the page and have more than 100 users with that file.

good luck!

Actually LW 4.12.3 was released several days ago. Get it here http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml or your personal pro downld page. Those results will still show, but will not open up napster sites, etc. So yes, try those results further down the list.

Question Napster site appears

I tried to download as I use to do and now the site switches to a napster site everytime I click the download button . What's going on? I have 4.08 version of Limewire.
