hey, sorry you're having problems!

I'm on an Imac G4 running OSX version 10.1.5 with 384 meg
on a DSL line. I've used limewire for about 3 months and I'm
generally pleased, my first experience with p2p.

Some, most, downloads are slow - and some are simply
impossible no matter how long I wait or how many times I
try. But enough DO work that I am generally happy and
amazed with limewire, especially for the price.

Patience, lots of it, is a virtue I think.
