You are right! I have conflict catcher but just before I was going to use it I tried one more thing. I noticed that every time I downloaded Limewire, my Norton anti-virus came on the screen saying there was a problem with blu-shannon-generalplus-468x60. I found this and other simular items in a folder in Limewire and I dragged them to the trash and deleted them. Since I did this I seem to be free of the freezeups at this point. I have downloaded 8 songs and the screen isn't freezing like it did before. Maybe trashing the ads in the folder did the trick. I never got around to using conflict cather. I will if the situation reoccurs. Thanks for the suggestion.
