From Pasadena CA
Hello ! (sorry for my bad english... i'm a new resident in USA)

Since 2 weeks i use for try it the "Limewire 2.8.5jum87" like it's noticed in the "INFO DIALOG BOX" of OS X.
I use this application with Macintosch powermac G4 under OS X connected to an SBCyahooDSL connection 384Kbps speed.

Since 2 weeks... i crazily dowloaded almost 800 songs except one trouble since 2 or 3 days.

My problem & questions are: When i decide to clic on a mp3 file for downloading l lost the connection in 65 to 75 % of the time, Why ?.
Curious about that... i tryed to undesrtand this situation and watched in the STATISTICS dialog box of my LIMEWIRE and clicked on the download graphic ... as i observe the graph is very low 90 % of the time under 60 KBPS and sometimes for an hours or 3Hrs totaly dead.... and suddenly the curb ot the graph grown up to 160 Kbps or 200 but just for 10 to 20 minutes.... like a surfer on the beach, i wait sometimes an hour for a good wave and click like a maniac on every files i targeted, but no tanning by this way ...

-- WHY THIS SITUATION IS LIKE THAT ?

-- HOW CAN I OBTAIN A STABLE AND POWERFULL
CONNECTION FOR DOWNLOAD MORE EASILY ???

-- IF I BUY THE LAST VERSION OF LIMEWIRE, THE TROUBLE
WILL BE FIXED OR NOT ?

-- LIMEWIRE IS IT NON-COMPATIBLE WITH YAHOO SBC DSL AND WHAT I WILL DO IF IT'S NOT COMPATIBLE ?

If you are an expert or someone who allreadey faced this troubles, you will be very gentle to advice me and keep contact, will shares files perhaps one day etc etc etc.... thanks by advance.

have a nice day for you ! :-)
