Limewire problem

**Timbuk2** · 25-02-2006 9:45pm #1

Hi

I downloaded and installed Limewire about a week ago. It was all working fine on the default settings for me, I could download songs all the time etc. But today, it was not the case

Every song I go to download says "Need more sources"?
Pressing "Find more sources" doesn't help

I am on Eircom Broadband (Wireless through USB [internal] Wireless Card on my computer).

Using WinXP Home SP2

If anybody knows what the problem is here I would be most grateful it they could help

How many songs have you tried with this?

I have the same problem but I think it is something you can't get around. There are just some songs un-downloadable.

Well I downloaded about 10 before this, they all worked fine. Until today, it seems hardly any of them work. I'm not sure what the problem is??

Just try a really popular song and if that doesnt work then you know you have a probelm!

What songs you trying to download because you need at least one more person downloading the same one.

Well, with the songs that I am trying to download. According to the # pane, I try now and go for the highest one (I used to be nearly able to download nearly all availables songs). If you pick the highest one it will start, by saying "Downloading from 1 host" then will go up to "Downloading from 2 hosts" and then up to 3, to 4, to 5, to 6, and sometimes can go up to 7 or 8. Then just at the end (99%) LimeWire will come up with a pop-up "Limewire has detected a corruption in this file ---- Would you like to continue anyway?"

Of course I choose "No". I did choose yes once but the song didn't work. In Windows Media Player the bar would stay still and the length of the song, apparently, was 22:54, and this was only one song that defintly wasn't that length
