upload okay, download stuck on "NEED MORE SOURCES
 
Greetings-
This is my 1st post...I'll find the intro page shortly & searched & couldn't find a similar problem:
A couple days ago I wasn't able to download-only uploading worked. I uninstalled Limewire & it started working again. Wife turned computer off & on again & it's stuck on "need more sources". I looked under help & FAQ, checked my firewall, checked my Antispamware, even turned off "pop up blocker. I have Windows XP & am using an AT&T Yahoo Browser which has worked fine. We did recently have a few viruses attached to our Antispyware & their Tech Support had me download Avast! to remove them, did it, uninstalled Avast, and now Limewire's messing up. I don't know if the 2 have anything to do w/ each other. Please help! Has something changed recently on LimeWire?

It's not unusual that on some days incomplete files are difficult to connect to. This could be for many reasons. The Gnutella 'swarming' works in strange methods some days & some days focus seems elsewhere. lol

AFAIK .. swarming is the grouping of file requests & grouping of file upload candidates. eg: some days I mostly get video uploads, some mostly audio uploads, some days a particular artist. I often upload faster than I download, which doesn't bother me because I tend to search the 'rarer' files anyway which are harder to find & obtain.
