Default No Uploads Fewer Search Result After Upgrade

Hi, when I upgraded to 4.12 PRO I noticed I get much fewer search results and absolutely no Uploads, and I used to at least get lots of uploads going even if I wasn't downloading anything. I have set all options to exactly what was in previous version of Pro, I have reduced my junk filter to most lenient setting. I have verified my McAffee firewall has given Limewire full access. I have followed the Sticky tips and fine tuned recommended settings. I have tried switching between Ultrapeer and Leaf, but same results (except Ultrapeer slows my speed to a crawl.) I also noticed where I used to get amazing download speed under Turbo, I now get far reduced download speed even with 10 hosts attached. I am only finding any files now by Browsing Hosts. I am on XP, Cable connection. What might have changed?

Try these tips.

Do you see a wall in front of your globe ??
If so could you tell me your modem/router details please...

Just check with these instructions that you have McAfee and limewire configured properly...
Port Forwarding for the McAfee Security Center

I have no wall in front of my globe, Limewire will connect and go to Turbo status, so I'm connecting I guess.... I don't know about my modem/router, TimeWarner installed a network card and I have a dedicated cable line to that card for my internet....

If you don't see a wall, your modem/router isn't an issue and neither is McAfee...
So try this and see if it helps...
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...

Default thanks

I've been trying that, sometimes I get different results. I just don't understand why such a major change after the upgrade. Oh well, thanks for all your help

You could try the Pro Beta, it's very good, I use it, it also has the ability to download torrents...
If you decide to give it a try you can access the Beta from your personal download page..
