Hmm - the "solution" sounds interesting - Iīll try.

The problem with losing files might not be with LimeWire - I have experienced that with several other programs. The only program I know where I hadnīt that problem is GetRight.
I think itīs because Windows uses a buffered read/write method. That means that whenever a file is written/read the system does not read/write a file but the corresponding buffer in memory, reducing access time. BUT when the computer crashes, there is no data written to the harddisk.

That MIGHT be the case.
