Please see bug below
When I try to start up the new version it gets stuck while the little progress window says "loading messages...", I have to get out with esc, because nothing else'll happen from there.
I'd be happy with any suggestions on how to get a working Limewire, since there isn't another software I can use on the Mac...

LimeWire version 2.9.8
Java version 1.1.8 from Apple Computer, Inc.
Mac OS v. 9.0.4 on PowerPC
Free/total memory: 19195272/22413312
