>I too would like to see a process indicator at the end of downloads. Sometimes it just seems to hang and that kind of worries me because I don't know if it's locked up untill it finishs. I would also like LimeWire to warn me if I try to close it whale it's hashing because I've done it at least once and you lose the download if you do that.

i believe the newest version of limewire has two extra download statuses ... instead of sitting at 100% progress and downloading from 0 hosts, it will first say "Verifying File Contents" (and the progress bar will rise from 0 - 100) and then "Saving File". the first is for while it is hashing the file, the second is for when it is either moving or copying the file from the incomplete to the saved directory.

this lets you know when downloads are hashing.
