Default Low search results, "need more sources"

My problem is that recently (within the last month or so) Limewire has either turned up few or no results for my searches, with the exception of any downloads I have on the computer. If a few things turn up, "need more sources" always appears. The FAQ on the Limewire page didn't seem to help--I'm not the best with computers, and their section on "need more sources" confused me a little.... And I haven't seen any posts with the same problem. Similar, but still too different.
It says I'm connected while this happens. I'm using a Mac and my internet is connected through a college, though it doesn't look like I have any firewalls from that.
Any help would be very excellent. Limewire worked fine for four months before it happened.
Thank you!

Schools are known for blocking p2p, but you sound like a lucky one who doesn't have a connection issue...
The only advice we can give on the need more sources is the fact that there are alot of fake files around now, this sticky has some good info on what to look out for and how to find true downloadable files....
