Well what happens when you try to download movies?

This happened to me last year when my ex ISP started to "bandwidth shape" my internet connection, i.e. restrict my P2P usage. I found that my Internet browsing was unaffected but I could no longer use LW to download film clips.

You're probably seeing fake files.

If you're searching for music files, use the All Types search & search for artist or album rather than song title. Go for a file with 10 sources or less...stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources.
If you're searching for video files, always chech the file with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake.

Check out the threads below for more info & tips, including how to use Bitzi.
