(1) Go to connections window, how many connections does it show? For Pro it should be 5 unless running in UP mode. (2) How many connection bars do you see on front window bottom left ... should be 5 light blue connection bars. (3) Go to menu bar, click the LimeWire name next to Apple icon at far left, choose About LW & see if it says pro. If yes then you're in luck.
