Have you tried downloading a file with a single modem source? What happens then?

Deleting the preferences folder has been a fix for those people who suddenly find that literally everything they try to download needs more sources. If you're going to delete the prefs folder, don't forget to look for one in the new location of C:\Document and settings\your username\Application Data\LimeWire (hidden by default). The .limewire folder is the old prefs location, for LW versions older than 4.9.34.

Yea it seems that only 2 different files would not d/l. I tried multiple sources and names for the files. Its just hard to imagine that all of them were fakes. After trying too d/l the file from alot of different sources I tried to d/l another one file and it was doin the same thing(connecting 99host tried). Then later on I tried a different file and it worked. I must of been a coincidence that both were bad files back to back. Thank you for your response Birdy!
