Hey guys,

I'm a computer programmer at the Uni. We're running a pretty top-shape comp here, with an Athlon 3600 and 1 gig of RAM. Everyone in my lab could write their own virus if they chose, so I'm definitely not infected. We're firewalled, but the firewall isn't the issue. Also, we're using the absolute latest builds of Java because some of us develop in Java. And yet, Limewire slows down the computer to the point where the whole thing is unusable if it isn't hidden in the tray.

I can run a Java app like Eclipse that takes twice as much memory as Limewire, and that runs at decent speed.

The weird thing is that I've had limewire working at normal speed, a week ago.

Any clues?
