Unhappy Help - Can't Download

Hi - I have bought Limewire Pro and have installed it (properly, I believe). The problem is that I can't download anything. It shows that I have a turbo charged connection, I can search and the searching is fine (brings up hundreds of choices for my artist search under audio, however, when I click on a song to download it, nothing happens. Even if I right click on the song and choose download, nothing happens.

I am running Windows XP
I have the windows firewall
I Have 1.00 GB of ram
I have approximately 161 GB of free space
I have a SoftV92 Data Fax modem with SmartCP
I am connecting from home
I just bought the new Limewire Pro - about 3 weeks ago
My internet service provider is interbaun.com
I have one other computer hooked up - but it's only for the kids games
I am a fairly experienced user - having used free limewire for a few years
There is a brickwall in front of the blue world icon, however, in the windows firewall I have made limewire an exception
I also added port forwarding, just in case
I am using AVG as my security program
I live in Canada

Please help - when I had the free limewire I had no problems until about three weeks ago when out of the blue all of my songs got zipped for some reason. I uninstalled the free version of limewire and decided to buy the pro version. Like I said, it loaded fine, searches fine, won't download.

Thanks.

See if this helps with the downloading problem

Downloads turning into zip files is caused by a worm. Check this thread out for more info.
Music files changing to zip or exe: some info
