Since I tried the betas I have found that my connection completely cuts out - downloads and ultrapeers - and then takes a little while to reconnect. Sometimes it won't reconnect again at all unless I go to file/disconnect and then file/connect. This all happens generally 5-10 minutes after opening limewire.

* Your OS version
Windows XP SP2
*Your Java version
jre1.5.0_02 an j2re1.4.1_06
* Whether you have a firewall or not
I use Kerio Personal Firewall 4.2
* Whether you were on the computer when this happened, or whether you were away and found Limewire disconnected when you came back
I was here every time. But I haven't left it open when I'm away
* Were you a leaf or an Ultrapeer
I was connecting to 5 ultrapeers.
* Did you have many active downloads.
Only a handfull.

If you want me to test this out more or do more complex analysis you can contact me at robertwiblin AT gmail DOT com. I've reverted to 4.8.1 because it isn't happening in that version. I was having this problem with 4.9.4. Cheers guys!
