hi,
i used to have a lot of problems when running 10.3.8. limewire would crash all the time and i have to fix my java almost every other day. the whole situation end up causing the HD on my brand new laptop to die. with a new HD put in, everything newly installed, running 10.3.9, limewire couldn't run any smoother. well, until yesterday.

i have read the tips given, to always clean up my download queue and the incomplete folders. i tried my best to keep my limewire clean and lean. but yesterday, something went wrong and it started to slow slow down. even tho it showed that it is downloading from say, 6 hosts, it will still be going no more than 1KB/s. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

i tried deleting more and more, even those that are waiting, but only downloaded a small percentage, all tossed away. reduced the number of downloads that takes place at the same time. nothing helps. do i have to deal with the java issue on the computer again? i hope not.

thanks for your help!
