Default I have connectivity but I can't download!

Hello!

I am not new to Limewire, but my downloads have not been working as of late... I have a feeling this may be due to 1 of 2 things:

1) we have moved so the new internet connection may be messing it up
2) I recently installed Symantic Antivirus so something may be blocking the downloads

I have read through lots of threads and the FAQ and can't seem to solve my dilemma.

I have a Dell Inspiron Laptop and Windows XP home edition operating system. Our internet service is Shaw and my laptop has wireless. All of the connectivity bars are showing on my limewire but the firewall is also appearing.

What is happening is when I click on songs to download, they say 'connecting' forever then show '0%' download and then 'need more sources' for download; then I check for more sources and it won't find any.

I upgraded to Limewire Pro and it doesn't seem to help either.

Please help, it would be much, much appreciated!

Have you tried d/loading files with less hosts?? Try scrolling down and hitting on a less popular file, also check the bitrate of the file your trying to d/load, it should be 128 or higher, plus don't always presume a T3 connection is the best to d/load from

Thanks for your reply John. I tried to download less popular files, also several of the same file, restarting the program, searching simultaneously for the same file and still no luck. Nothing is downloading for some reason, it is a mystery!!
