As far as system details, I can't be specific because Im unsure. Im on Windows XP and have been using limewire successfully for about two years.
Check out this link (Blank Page) If that doesn't help try this (The search doesnt work) scroll down to soulangel723 #6 Hopefully it will fix your problem -- pse let us know

I did not use the last advice regarding the blank page as I can see limewire and all the buttons etc. For some reason without me changing anything additional it has begun working again.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help, I appreciate it.

Default another searching question
Thanks for all these helpful links, guys. I was having the exact same problem. Now that I am able to search and get results, what type of files are designated for movies? I'm getting multiple formats for one search, is there anyway to "check" the file to make sure it's what you wnat before you download?

Thanks!

Lord of the Rings-
Thank you for the Bitzi link. Utilized that. One question though, are there ANY actual REAL movies available for download on LW. I really don't care for porn and I paid a significant amount of money to be able to download "thousands" of movies. Am I missing something here, or have I just been seriously duped?

What's the deal?

Anything above 500 MB is usually safe. Don't forget about Bitzi; that's user feedback on particular share files.

TY for the info, but still........are there any REAL films available for download and if so, how on earth does one go about finding them?

I search for a new movie title....I get a few options which are either commercials or porn. I search for old movie titles, again, commercials or porn.

??????

There's a trick to using the search. Search only one search criteria such as title or star etc., otherwise it seems to invite lots of spammed junk. Same principle as described here: How to find music
