The golden rule these days is to stay away from the files with lots & lots of hosts. The links that 6_pac left have good info & tips to help. |     Ok, I feel moderately better. You see, I've been trying to reply here for 2 f#$%^&ing days but in both cases for some f#$%^&ed up reason here the text field resets and I loose everything. I'm the type that really needs a spell checker as I dislike typing almost as much as being forced to use an MS based system. Tell me MAC users...it really is better on that side isn't it? I guess what I didn't get across was that prior to broaching this here I opted to use my eyes and not my mouth as a first reaction to my woes. That said I know why I got cookie cutter responses. Again due to curiosity and guile exceeding my actual knowledge, and then of course self imposed frustration, ahhhh, I digress... What about JAVA issues? Virtual Memory? System Cache? Potential Memory leak within the LW App.? No one ever touches on elements outside of LW. Another thing, ever since I re installed LW (Like 6 times now) it can take the installation but it can't hold on to the installation. Getting "Limewire is having an internal Problem" and then hangs. When I restart the app. I have to go over some all of my pre sets. This sucks. And are there really so few so called "ULTRAPEERS" Out there? that I can't maintain 5 or 4 or even 3???!!!  |
