Hello again! Version 0.215 of GrooveWalrus is out, streaming should work again. I didn't really test this release too thoroughly, so if there's problems let me know. More details later.
A few days ago I downloaded GrooveWalrus and I really like it except for one issue. When I search for bands in GrooveWalrus I only get a maximum of about 13 to 15 songs that come up. But when I type the same bands into the GrooveShark website I get a ton of matches. Is this a limitation with the program, or is something not working right? I don't see anything about it on the website. Sorry if this should be obvious; I'm new. :)

Yeah, that's a limitation of the program. You might try using the search if you're looking for one song, for more than one - searching from the last.fm tab might be a better idea (it'll return more results). One of the underlying objectives of GrooveWalrus is for you to be able to generate playlists easily without having to search or add track individually. Check the movies for an idea of what I'm talking about.
Also, it appears the search may be busted right now, I may have to fix that.
