With the new version, it's probably best your delete the previous LW preferences folder; 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.) BUT, make a note of all your option settings first before you do this.
ie: go to LW's menu bar, Tools > Options & check the settings. Then close LW & do the above.
If that doesn't fix it, see
