Hi there, have read all the posts on fixing hangs and download probs with LW 12.4.3 and OSX 10.4, it seems many users are experiencing similar problems. What happens with me is LW starts up OK, downloads at very slow speeds (1-2kb) then after a random period of time (always less than 1hr), unexpectedly hangs.

Have deleted the prefs file, changed ports, reinstalled, blah blah. My best guess is that Java1.5 doesn't exist for mac? Currently running J2SE5.0 on the 1.4.2 engine.

Didn't have these problems with LW 4.8. So my investment in the latest versioin is apparently money down the tube.

Any other suggestions? Any help greatly appreciated.
