If your connection is ok, try this: Problems with the search

And if that's no help, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things.
LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista

In LW go tools > options > searching > basic & check whether the 'show license warning' box is ticked. If it does, untick it > Apply > ok...see if that makes any difference.

Are the files hard to find? If so, then it might not be on the gnutella network. If their easy to find, something might be wrong.

What is your firewall? And is there a brick wall in front of the world at the bottom?
