Downloads won't progress after updating LimeWire!

[stokedxiv]

I use Limewire regularly with no problems, even today I got 3 small files with no problem. But then suddenly all my downloads would not go past "Connecting..." and stay at zero percent. Then Limewire notified me that it needed to restart after the upgrade, so I restarted and still the same problem. I then deleted limewire, and downloaded it fresh from limewire.com and am still having the same issue! The program searches fine and connects fine, but when you click to download a file, it stays at "Connecting" and won't begin to download anything!

Looks like I am not the only person to have this problem:

Anybody know of a way to fix this problem with the new update?
