Keep in mind that if you have an outdated limewire client, you could make it harder for you and other people... (i.e) You might need a file you don't have and have problems downloading the file, and you might want to contact the other person who does have it, by using the 'Chat with Host' feature. Also vice-versa, the person might need a file that they want from you....

I think this should be mentioned somewhere when Limewire starts up asking you for the updated version of the client.

Also, I'm a nice guy, and I often check up on my monitoring tab and check out my uploads and see if someone is leeching a big file off of me they need, and I contact them to see if they need me to send it to them via msn or aim, or upload it on a Web File-hoster.

Please forgive my ignorance, what is a "web file hoster"?

It is a website that stores a file of yours so that other people can download it from the site, instead of giving it to them through msn or aim, [i.e.] www.rapidshare.de You can upload a file and give your friend the URL to download it from the site. This is what I sometimes do for others on limewire if they need the file faster.

I hate old versions of LimeWire...I don't know why people use them. I always update

Thanx people!! I appreciate all of the help, though I can connect, I am still getting slow download speeds, thinking that it has alot to do with my ISP...
