ive used limewire for a long time but i took some time off from using it for a few months and removed it from my computer. now i have the newest version of basic on my pc.

when i start the program it connects fine and everything and when i search i get results but when i click on any mp3 it moves to the dl pane and then either says connecting forever or says need more sources or something? i used to dl stuff all the time with limewire and im confused why it doesnt work.. any help would be awesome!

also... i am able to dl mpegs and stuff but not mp3s?

Those are probably fake files. Especially if your search returns thousands of results. For me it seems to come and go. I can do a search and get what I'd consider a normal amount of results(less than 1000) and they'll be good files. Then I'll do a search and get 4000 results(mostly all fake). So keep trying you should be able to find some good ones.

It's probably just coincidental that you've been having trouble with mp3s and not mpegs. Popular files tend to bring up more fake results.

See: How to find music

Fake files showing up in search results (Connecting for ages with many hosts & then Need More Sources when trying to download a file.).
