I cant download anything off limewire, the songs end up "needing more sources" and still dont work.

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) XP
2. What firewalls you have? NONE

5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) BROADBAND
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? ????
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? HOUSE
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version . NEWEST ONE
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? AOL
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? your test worked!!!
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. FIRST TRY

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? ????
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). UK

More than likely thoses files that sit for ever needing more sources are fake files. While searching try varying the way you search. Instead of the title of the song try either the artist or the album. Also take a look here. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/downlo...h-results.html
