help! "couldn't download" happens all the time!

[TheCrush]

ok, I mostly use Limewire to download **EDIT** episodes, and I will try and download like 15 at once, and only one or two will work if I am lucky......the rest just say "waiting XX seconds for reply" and eventually come up "couldn't download"......I am on a network with a T1 connection, and have downloaded from other software problem free, so I dont think that is the problem.....

any suggestion?

I also have another quick question...
when it list the connection in the search field, why are some green and some black? and sometimes I wonder if these people's connections are really what they say because some downloads transfer soooo slow!

peace

can't help you on the green connection listings... but i suspect that most of the failed downloads are not a problem with your connection; they simply occur when a user dissallows downloads or cancels them... or goes off the web.
