Limewire is no good for torrents.

Use Azureus or uTorrent

I'm not able to download torrent files with limewire. Whenever i download it, it keeps on saying "locating resources" or displays some numbers that keeps on counting down like forever....I have tried waiting for the download to start, but it doesn't start even for hours!

Also, I'm trying to download torrents through limewire because i'm having port forwarding problems with utorrent or bit torrent or others...

Is it because i'm using wifi connections?....does port forwarding or downloading torrents not work with wifi connections?


HELP!!!

I am portforwarded and have no trouble at all downloading torrents on wireless connection. And even if you have trouble portforwarding you should still be able to just use UPNP instead and still get good speeds, of course depending on how healthy the swarm is for the particular torrent.

First thing is to stop trying to use Limewire. It IS A TERRIBLE TORRENT CLIENT!!!!!!, so stop using it.

Concentrate on getting a decent client to work.
