Not any more.

Ok ... aptsuk try these things:

1. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)

2. Tip: Purge the Downloads Queue!

3. Reduce shares if they are over 2,000

4. Uninstall all Java versions using the add/remove control panel. Then reinstall using only the "Offline" installer which is about a 15 MB download: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

5. Go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Speed & disable Ultrapeer Capabilities.

6. Reduce both the upload & download bandwidth speed by about 10-15% each

7. Don't use the Resume button on all incomplete files. This can have side-fx such as affect LW's connection quality. May queue your files for much much longer. This will also stress LW & your comp. If you use Resume/Find sources then just apply it to a couple or so at one time.
