have you looked inside the SHARED folder for the music ?
C:\Users\Compaq_Administrator\Shared\
and you might need to have windows media player find the music by placing a link to the shared folder in the search box
to do this open windows media player and click on the TOOLS tab , then select OPTIONS Then select Monitor folders, the choose add and add the address to the shared folder
C:\Users\Compaq_Administrator\Shared\
and windows will find the music then :-)
Hope this helped

You might need to Un-install limewire and re-install it ?
make sure you have a copy of the limewire installation file before you uninstall it.
I uninstall mine once a week so that people can reconnect and download more files after they have reached there limit, i have a lot files
you might try to pause the downloads and restart them, before you uninstall it ? I am new to limewire and hope i can help others, once you uninstall it you will loose all the files you are currently trying to download, so you will need to re-download them :-( and if it says you already have a copy, choose to append a number to the new file, and then see if that works.

Whatever you see listed as junk is based on your own junk filter settings/preferences. The junk filter ratings are based purely upon your own settings...nothing to do with anybody else

Default virus software

Have you allowed limewire in your virus protection software ?
"C:\Program Files\LimeWire\LimeWire.exe"
copy the addy and open your virus protection and find the allow list and paste the addy into the allow list

and maybe you have a compatability issue, you can try to run limewire in another platform and allow other users access to limewire

"C:\Program Files\LimeWire\LimeWire.exe"
so right click the limewire icon, choose properties
then choose compatability, and try to run it in a diffrent platform, and also check the box to run as adminastrator
and you might as well go into the sharing section and allow anyone on your computer to access limewire,
I hope this helps but if not let us know and we will try to find another fix for it,
