Angry Cannot Download!!!??

I have been using limewire for a while now, and I a few months ago i upgraded to PRO. I was downloading files like a breeze last night, but today I went to download and nothing is happening. I click on the file(s) that I want to download and in the download tray they just sit there saying "connecting" and then after a few minutes "need more sources". I am fully connected to limewire. It seems as though my P2P is screwed up or not registering with limewire. Any ideas?

Carco-

A lot of times it shows hundreds of hits when searching, but only a few are listed. I believe this is because it is registering 600 people having the same file. So, instead of showing all 600 of the same file, it just shows one. It makes sense so I'm gonna run with that theory.

Go to LW's menu bar, Tools > Options > Filters > Junk & check the option to show junk results at bottom of results. Also, turn junk filter down to near but not on zero.

Now all your results will show. But you may need to sift thru them to be sure some items are not accidentally marked as junk. If they are then select, press trash can icon so they are no longer junk. Those junk items that do show, select them, press trash can icon so they will from now on show as junk. You will need to do this repeatedly.

Don't forget to see pointers here also http://www.gnutellaforums.com/278968-post3.html

If searching music, then the files will need to be larger than 1,000 KB (1 MB).

If not getting good results, try varying your search criteria. Change your search terms or type of search.
