thanks Mdouma46, fantastic tip on Java. Will try it and report back.

Tom2, I have been running on a 500DP machine, not terribly slow. ;-) It only has 1GB of RAM, though. ;-)

I would love to see useful tips like the above. I will try reducing the number of transfers.

A couple things I have noticed in the past few days. I will queue up about 20 files to download, and all will "stick". If I quit and relaunch LimeWire, a couple usually start. Sometimes I have to do this a couple times.

This doesn't seem to work as well under OS 9, though. The Kill/resume works under 9, though, so this clearly seems like a bug, or setting that could be enchanced.

One other thing I notice, is that when I have LimeWire on two machines, a 9 and X, the 9 gets a lot of downloads, the X machine none. AND, many of the downloads suffer form the uincomplete probelms I suffer from, despite the fast, solid, reliable connection I have. Whatever is going on, it is a network issue, not a client issue, perhaps.
