Recently Limewire wont let me download avi files. This has always worked well in the past. Other files such as mp3s etc are working fine.

Everytime i try to download an avi file it spends ages saying that it is connecting, and then states "needs more sources", however this happens everything, having tried many avi files, and therefore it cant be just a case of needing more sources.

Then occasionally, limewire says that im not connected due to possible firewalls etc whilst trying to download an avi file, though this is not the case, I have exception settings on my anti virus programme and firewall that allow Limewire,and sometimes this message occurs whilst im actually downloading an mp3 file, therefore i must have a good connection.

Please can anyone help with this problem? Thanks

USE BITZI LOOKUP
when you see a file in search you want
Right click/advanced/look up file with BITZI, if its not reported on leave it, till it is,
Now music, is not so easy,
The Newer they are, the more careful you must be.
The record companys are putting swarms of fakes on the network,
Take note of size, Songs less than 2000kb with 128kb bitrate must be less than two mins.
THINK!!, how long is the song Im looking for ?
so what size SHOULD it be,
If it dos'nt have a bitrate! LEAVE it,
Scan every File befor OPENING them
Dont D/L exe,rar,zip,or wma files. I am expert at using LimeWire & I dont touch them they are 99.9% viruses.
We only use these for testing antivirus programs.
Peace.
