Angry CoNnEcTiNg...

OK... I've asked probably over 100 people...

Whenever I try to download a song, (any song), it always says connecting, connecting, connecting.. it said connecting for 15 minutes so I just cancelled it. This happens with ANY song..

I asked my friends, and they said it's just a "broken link" what ever that means...

What's wrong and what do I do?

Thanks

I'd say it's your ISP as they are known to block p2p...

You could try changing the listen port in limewre...
go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Firewall
and try something between 49152 up to 65535, try this one 64049....
