Trap_Jaw, I don't prefer Acquisition. The LimeWire GUI is nicer. But, that's the point.

If LimeWire and Acquisition are essentially the same, why is it the LimeWire 2.8.x gets hung in "Requery" loops and NEVER downloads any file larger than a couple of MBs, while Acquisition 0.72 starts downloading immediately and continues until the file completes and/or the host goes offline.

I've downloaded nothing but a few short MP3s (totalling maybe 10MB) in the last month using 2.8.5 and 2.8.6. But, last night with Acquisition 0.72, I downloaded over 400MB!! Both programs were working off the same file list from the same hosts!

Makes no sense.

I repeat what I've been saying for weeks. LimeWire is broken and needs to be fixed!!!
