Help,,,,,,

I am using the 3.8.7 version of limewire, I dont have a firewall on my computer, I log in from home, I have a cable internet connection. Initially I had the Java Virtual Machine that Limewire said to install which is the 1.3.1 version of the JVM. That gave me a WI*** RPC error each time I tried to shut down the computer after closing limewire. As I had that error, I deleted that JVM and installed the latest JVM, 1.4.1.

When I start up limewire, it opens up, and first has a turbo charged connection, which gets slower and slower as time goes on, and finally shows disconnected.

Even if I select some files to download that have a T! or higher connection and more than 10 users, I seem to connect and begin the download only sometimes, when the download speed is very low like 1 or 2 or even 0KBs. Whats going on?

I did thed fix sdaswani suggested, that is fully shut down the instance of limewire, delete the .limewire file, and then restart limewire, but no improvement.

What do I do?'
