Stays at "needs more sources" Whenever I try to download any file, it stays on "Needs more sources". I have very strong connection to the network, and LW is Firewall free, both of my fwalls let's it connect to the network. What should I do? Besides, I also get the same problem on another P2P software I use. And I don't use them both at the same time, anyways... |

See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location). Fixes for LimeWire This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things. If you're not sure of your settings, go through LW's tools > options & write them all down, so that you can reset things later. |
