Question Limewire being weird

When being idle for a while it disconnects me from the network, but still I'm downloading at 80+ KB/s

How on earth can anyone find my upload-slots when I'm disconnected. The result being that no one is uploading from me

Whats that all about ???

That was a problem in 4.10 but they said they said they would have it fixed in 4.11 what version are you running. If you are running 4.10 you may want to upgrade. If you are running 4.11 then you need to report it in the LimeWire beta section.

I'm running 4.9.37 Pro. I have tried some of the never versions, but it seems like my laptop likes this version.

2 MBit down 0.5 MBit Up (Limewire T1. Unlimited Down. 50 Up. 5 slots)
Toshiba Qosmio F10-136
Windows XP MCE 2005
1.7 Ghz Pentium M 735
512 MB DDR ram
6+ GB free harddiskspace out of 40 on the one Limewire is installed on. Just deleted incomplete folder. (maybe 500 MB in it now)
SMC BRA 7204 Router (Can't get it to use portforwarding for some strange reason)
NAT Firewalled (using UPnP) Brickwall in front of globe, but this has never happened before. The test says true or OK (can't remember)
JAVA J2SE Runtime Enviroment 1.5 update 6
No newly installed programs
Have never needed to delete preference folder in about 10 months (could that be it ??)
Usually I can download fine exept for limewire message sometimes popping up saying that I have no internet connection (but I'm still both downloading and uploading and connection goes straight to turbo again ??)

I have never noticed Limewire doing this before last night. I tried connecting again. It only stayed connected for a few minutes and very few searchresults came up when I tried searching (the whole time I was still downloading at between 80 and 140 KB/s)

Seems very strange to me

Try deleting the preference folder and see if it helps

I probably will, but it only happened once last night. And when I pressed connect it connected right away and ran the whole night.

I'm thinking maybe a small ISP problem ?

I'll try for one or two more nights before doing it, to see if it still behaves badly.

If I delete it, will it for sure not make it worse ? Has been running quite well exept for the last two nights, especially after I deleted the entire incomplete folder.

Default Fixed :)

I tried turning "show incoming searches" on. Now everything is running perfect. Strange since I am connected as a leaf. I see lots and lots of incoming searches. Even seems more stable than before

BTW have the newest versions of Limewire got any better ?
I stopped at 4.10.5 (wasn't running well at all)
