I am having the exact same prob as everyone else seems to be having. Can I ask what does this tick everyone keeps talking about next the connection tab. I have a blue turbo charged bar for my connection and still no downloads (music). I have already removed some hosts and gotten all new, but still nothing. Kelp anyone! Is the only solution to uninstall and re-buy it?

Go to Tools > Options > Searching > Lisence Warning and make sure the box is not ticked and select apply...

Another thing if you are using limewire 4.13 and later you can apply this hostile list...
The TechNutopia Fullsize Hostiles List for BearShare and LimeWire

If they don't make a difference could you supply the details Remoc asked for...

The tick is just a check mark to show your connections. If you've already tried finding different hosts and that didn't work then sounds like you have other issues.

You say you have A (single) Blue Bar? Then are you seeing a wall in front of the globe? If so, then you are firewalled. Probably need a little more info to solve the prob. See below.

Supply these details please...

1) windows vista
2)non
3)109GB
4)77.3
5)broadband
6)don't have one
7)home
8)limewire pro
9)sprint
10)didn't take me anywhere, said couldn't show address
11)no
12)new problem
13)no
15)norton
16)USA
I really appreciate all your help with this!

Remoc, I'm so sorry to sound so incredibly stupid, but I can't figure out how to get that hostile list. You have been really nice to try and help me. Any more help you could give would be most wonderful!

Angry Same issue here......

I have been with LW for 2 years and never had a problem until recently!!!! Now I can connect (No Firewall), and search. When I click to download a song (no matter how many hosts it shows) it says "Connecting". After a bit it says "1 host tried" "2 Hosts tried", and so on all the way through however many hosts has the file I am trying to get. Then it always reverts to "Need More Sources" I have looked and looked for an email addy or phone number to the LimeWire people, and can't find one. All I can find are links to this forum.......HELP!!!!

Try installing PeerGuardian, it will help keep the fake hosts out...Remember to enable PG just before you start limewire up...
