Hi Guys
I am a newbie today and have primarily joined because my downlods have stopped downloading.

Let me start with all my system details
OS:Windows XP Service Pack 2
Firewalls:Windows Firewall. Am also using AVAST antivirus
RAM:1GB
HDD Space available:119GB
Connection Type:Broadband
Router:Netgear DG834GT
Trying to Connect From:House
Limewire Version:4.12.15
Java:1.6.1_01
ISP:TalkTalk
Test:Test Worked
Sharing:Yes. One Other Computer
User Details:Been Using LW About a Year. This is a New Problem
Brick Wall:No.Bars Are At Full Strength (5)
Port Forwarding or UPnP:UPnP
Security:AVAST
Location:UK

The problem I'm having is that I have searched done a search and multiple hosts have been found but when I try to download it puts it into the bottom half for downloadb but nothing happens. It says 0kb/s for a while and then says 'Need More Hosts'.

Sorry, but Talk Talk customers have a lot of problems. Have a look at these threads below. If you use the forum search to look for Talk Talk, you'll probably find more threads;)

Is that it then, TalkTalk

ISP's known to BLOCK or Filter p2p or specifically Limewire

1-3k downloads

ISPs that throttle p2p - The Scream!

You could try changing ports but there's no guarantee that it's going to help you. In LW tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Change LW's listening port to 64049 (or something in the range of 49152 - 65535) > Apply > ok.

Try downloading during the hours this person suggests.
