Using Limewire for windows version 1.6. Why does the status say that I'm download while the speed indicates 0.0K bps and the status bar is stuck at 45%. My connection is over cable and I am trying to download from a T1 or a T3 line.

I've had that problem. If you remeber who you are downloading from, quickly kill your stalled download and reconnect to the host. Seems to work about 95% of the time for me. As for the other 5% you'll have to start over. But give the files you are trying to dowload some time. Sometimes they will go to 0.0 for a minute or two and then come back.
