Default Awaiting Sources, Not Downloading

I have been trying to download videos lately. I am finding videos with a lot of sources, like 10-15 sometimes more. When I click to download it it goes to "Awaiting Sources" in my queue and it never downloads, even though Limewire is telling me that there are a lot of sources available at that time. Anybody know whythis is happening? It used to work fine before, but it is like something changed. Thanks!!

mickjapa108 has a spectacular aura about
Default

USE BITZI LOOKUP
when you see a file in search eg.. avi,mpg,mpeg 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 company's are putting swarms of fakes on the network,
Take note of size, Songs less than 2000kb with 128kb bit rate, must be less than two minuets.
THINK!!, how long is the song I'm looking for ?
so what size SHOULD it be,
If it dos'nt have a bitrate! LEAVE it,
Scan every File before OPENING them
Don't D/L exe,rar,zip,or wma files. I am expert at using LimeWire & I don't touch them they are 99.9% viruses.
We only use these for testing anti virus programs.

P.S.. Try typing only the key words of the file, & leave out the small words (small words trigger SPAM results)

P.P.S.. Add these words to your word filter .exe .rar .zip .wma That will stop 50% of crap search results, Don't forget to apply.

Peace
