Seeing any brick walls at bottom of the LW program interface? Or a blue world icon?
Sounds like bad ultrapeers else, ISP interference.

I am having the same issue. I have windows XP. I do not know how much memory I have, I know it's alot, per my husband, connecting via DSL from my home. I just updated limewire to version 4.18.6 - what can I do to remove this brick wall? The only firewall type thing I have is Windows Live OneCare, never had any problems until I updated limewire. Thanks for the help!

Smile Problem with Searching

Hi Everyone. I managed to solve the problem I had with connecting by loading the Gnutella thingy but now I seem to be having a problem with searching. What happens is that for instance, I have tried downloading EDIT. The first two I downloaded had things on them which prevented access to the movie. Advertisement type things and such which would just not allow access so I had to delete them. Now I find that if I do a search for the same movie name more than once what is happening is that at the top of the screen where the search name is x EDIT 21/564 for instance and all I am getting showing is the 21 results. What happens to the 546? How do I clear previous searches. Are they put into a memory somewhere? It is quite frustrating because you don't know that those ones you have downloaded are 'corrupt' until they are finished. I am pretty green about all this and would really appreciate any help that anyone could give me. My computer is playing up (what's new?) so an email replay would be fine on EDIT I would be so grateful for your help. It would be so nice to find a resolution on the first day of spring which it is down here in Australia...

You sound like you may have picked up a virus or some spyware with the bogus files you downloaded, you should run a full system scan just to make sure....

These threads will give you a few tips on downloading safe files...
