Default unable to download when I click download (nothing happens)

I have just installed LW and I am unable to download, I can find what I'm looking for in the search (current hit) but when I click download (or right click and choose download) nothing happens - what am I doing wrong?

Hello Katonlw I have your exact same problem. Did you ever get a resolution?

*yawns* .. see that little blue link in my previous post (called "Cant download at all - nothing happens when I click download (click on link)"), click on it & see if it answers your question.

Thank you. You are truly the Lord of the Rings and Master of the Universe! And was a simple fix but I would have never figured it out. KUDOS!

Download speeds depend on your sources. For example, how fast are your uploads? How fast is each individual uploading files from your LW? If they have many uploaders then their upload speed is going to be compromised. And you may not even be downloading from a complete file, but someone's partially downloaded file so you can only download as fast as they can or so.

Advice is to search the topic again & try to find more sources. Then right-click the search tab & choose Get More Results.

Are you sure you are fully connected to the Gnutella network? Do you see 3 green bars are bottom of screen?
