Hi again--and welcome too Trevor.

ebene, Pro support is right. Since something is wrong, starting fresh with the all the updates is a good idea.

Did you both deinstall the old LimeWire folders in the preferences (click on the desktop, and use the Finder's Find command to search for any file containing the term "limew"). This will find all the old preferences so you can move/trash them and start from scratch again. This means you'll need to reset all your preferences again, but that is also good.

I still don't know if you repaired permissions after doing a safe boot. Please clarify.
