Default "Could not move..."-> user privileges

Since my last upgrade to 2.5.5 this problem shows up with files that some other USER started downloading. It is obviously related with the privileges to use the files in the default folder /Applications/Limewire/Incomplete.

It can be avoided by making sure the files in there have the rigth owner. (You may need to use the Terminal...) before starting Limewire.

This is simple a problem with the way Limewire is built. For some reason developers do not pay attention to the multiuser character of the OS. There is NO NEED for me to start downloading a file that somebody else's started.

If some smart developer reads this PLEASE try to implement a download.dat file for every User (to be stored at ~/Library/Application Support/Limewire) or/and a separate Incomplete folder for every User. This will fix many of the problems that show up in this list.

Thanks...
