As a followup to my previous reply I have posted details on magnet link tests with Limewire 4.1.1 Pro BETA, which fixes the issues with Bitzi magnets that I previously reported (below). However, the download never does start even though the magnet is accepted by Limewire. Details, and test materials, are provided at:

A description of the original problem reported to this forum is available in this thread:

Over the next few days I'll test the other features mentioned in previous reply. For the record, I've been running 4.1.1 beta with lots of uploads and downloads for several days straight, day and night, without any crashing or freezing -- it's good and stable on my system.
