This is generally due to Fake Files...This thread will explain ways of avoiding them...

Hello ... I have used LW for a number of years now and never had a problem till a couple of days ago.

I was using 4.12.11 and then downloaded the new version 4.13.4 thinking it would fix my downloading problems.

I have full connection and removed the firewall. But every song I try and download always go from "connecting" to "need more sources".

Reading this forum, I have tried a few different artise and selected different # avaliable to download. I am on Windows XP and I don't know what more I can do to fix my downloading problems?

I have no problems doing searches ... only downloading songs. It's very annoying ...

Pls help? Thanks!

You could try this, but it's not a guaranteed fix...

Go to your connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it...
Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more...
