I only have 20mb assigned to LW (2.7.3pro), although in 'about this computer' (under the apple menu) it's (LW's) ram usage occasionally goes way up to around 150mb! LW must have it's own virtual memory thingy going on because with 1gb of ram in a mac (os9) virtual memory is greyed out on the memory control panel.

So maybe ppl with less ram should consider upping the virtual memory and of course make sure you have plenty of HD space

I regularly use itunes at the same time and occasionally explorer and Outlook exp with near to no problems.

I have generally found that a crash of sorts can happen not long after LW complains that a d/l is corrupted, or those ones that don't seem finish but have reached 100%. Both of these don't happen often enough to bug me though.

"Look hands, no Ma"
In my case, Outlook Express is the biggest culprit. It freezes up alot on its own. So, I never have it running with LW. But, I have nowhere near 1 gig in memory. Only 384 MB.

Glad to hear you have "near to no problems"
