Hey,All my PC is virus free and I have: LimeWire 4.18.8.-With 2k+ shared files.
And Have Win XP-And use Firefox
So here is whats wrong:
Anything i search and download with Limewire works fine BUT,Any/all torrents
Take forever!!!no matter how many hosts they are downloading from.
Another issue I am having is no one seems to be uploading my stuff anymore.At all.Used to be all the time when I click on 'monitor' I would many people taking my music so to speak.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

For torrents, LW is not the best, it has limitations. Instead I would recommend either uTorrent or Vuse. I use Vuse myself.
Edit: one point about torrents is share ratio. LW does not appear to show or record this. Whereas some torrent users limit to sharing their files to people with a high'ish share ratio such as 1.0 which means equal or higher uploads than downloads in MB's. eg: mine is 2.3

For uploading, perhaps you can add descriptions to the files to make them found more easily. Some tips #2 & 3 here about that: How to Share Folders (click on link). And also enable chat. People rarely use chat for chatting nowadays anyway. And LW 5 no longer has this option.
