Your set up seems fine apart from the memory. I am using 320 mb on a G3 Powermac with a much slower processor, but I am always being advised I need more memory. I would advise uprading the memory to 320 AT LEAST, 512 would be better. I'm not sure if this will improve things but I think it is well worth trying.


Does your mac slow down immediately you switch LW on , or after some length of time?

It would be worth watching your Activity Monitor (in applications>utilities) to see what resourses are being used with Limewire running
