Yes, I've turned off any item relating to ultrapeers, and it helped maybe a little. It still needs a control to turn that bad boy down. I used to think it was the program (LW and/or Acq) causing the problem, but I hooked up the laptop while running the desktop, and the program running on one slowed down the other computer as well, that was not running anything other than a browser.

"BTW--how's your Acquisition doing on the library/ requery/ losing download folder problems? If these are OK in Acquisition, do you think these might just be Java, not Limewire problems?"

I haven't had much trouble with that. If I leave searches active, I find that eventually many of them download properly. They end up in the shared folder when completed.

Boy, "the team" is really laying low. Something must be going on, maybe the internet police have come crashing in. Gathering ip's left and right, for future harrassment. Eh?
