either way, it's probably not connecting because your Firewall is still up. Go to your control panel and click windows firewall, and select off (not recommended). I used to do that, and it didn't harm my computer. once I switched off the firewall everything downloaded perfectly.
However, I do strongly advise you to not download off limewire, simply because the act of downloading these things is simply illegal. I had my time, but now I know that I could get seriously done for it.
Either way, that's how to connect.
(I am giving this advice based on the information you didn't tell me if you were windows or apple or anything, so hope I helped)
aidenisfire answered Tuesday February 12 2008, 5:22 pm: when it says limewire is currently connected to the network all this means is that you don't have full connection yet. you know the five bars at the bottom left of your screen? they start being red, and then after you connect the bars will start to turn green until you are fully connected and they are all green. if you start a search when less than four bars it will say you are connecting. it doesn't affect the search too much though, and all your songs will download just fine.
