Ever so slightly good news LimeWire did function OK as a stand-alone system. Downloads completed and went safely to the shared library. And several of my files were uploaded.
Of course I had to try over 40 (forty!) download requests until I found two that would actually download. All the others stayed in Requery loops for over 12 hours. [No one has yet explained to me how it is that I find a file with a search, mark it for download, and poof! the owner's host is unavailable -- busy responses I understand, but not this.]
Note: twice during the night (I don't know when, I was asleep), a bug report window opened asking me to save debug info and mail it to LimeWire. I tried to press "choose" to select a filename, but "OK" was the only choice that responded. This morning there were no debug files anywhere on the disk.
