I am also experiencing the same problem as -shukaku-. To answer Wondering Why, no I don't have a wall in front of the globe and I'm sorry but I don't even know what an ISP is. I tried taking Grandpa's advice and went to the link that he provided but was lost after about the first 3 sentences! I would say that I am a bit technologically illiterate but that would be a severe understatement. Is there any way to put all of this into terms that even I can understand?

It can get very technical...
ISP is Internet Service Provider, some of them shape or block P2P...
Grandpa was suggesting that you try deleting the limewire preference folder..
LOTR has some screenshots of this in the link that Grandpa provided, so it is explained as easy as possible in that...

Having the firewall icon showing isn't going to help your downloading!! When you see the firewall icon, it means that somewhere (a software firewall or an internal firewall within a modem or router) a firewall is stopping LW from working at it's best. If you're firewalled then, chances are that other people can't download files from you. It can also effect your connection & so your own downloads suffer. No firewall icon is a good thing

Try downloading a file from here & see what happens. These files should download pretty fast

As WW asked before... who is your ISP?
Are you trying to download lots of files at once? Have you tried downloading just one file & does the same thing happen? How good's your connection (ie how many green bars)?

(sorry WW I didn't know you were on!)

Your cool Birdy, I dun undastan em...lol....
