YOu can make the directory a symlink to another folder. HTH

Open limewire.props with a text editor (should be in ~/.limewire) and add these three properties

INCOMPLETE_DIRECTORY=/YourPath
DOWNLOAD_SNAPSHOT_FILE=/YourPath/downloads.dat
DOWNLOAD_SNAPSHOT_BACKUP_FILE=/YourPath/downloads.bak

Well, depending on what you had in mind, the Incomplete directory goes in the same directory as your Shared directory, so the round about way to change the Incomplete directory is to set a new Shared directory.

(at least, that worked for me)
