weird
 

i have my search filter set to show all results, but i only get the blue star results

this happened overnight, it was fine yesterday

any fix, its probably something simple but i cant get it.....

Blue stars are a good thing it means you are connected to computers on your local network...Take advantage of it, they download really fast...;)

not for songs that arent mainstream, i get zero results for those

Try uninstalling your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE offline version....(5th one down)

Then uninstall Limewire using the uninstaller which is found in start > all programs > limewire...then re-install it using the offline installer...

If that does not help with your problem try deleting your preference folder...
