Default Incomplete files not being deleted

Is anyone else having this problem? I have 'Days to Keep Incomplete Files' set to '7', but I have files in there from December last year. Any ideas?

Default Re: Incompletes not being deleted

I do have the same problem. However, I sussed mine when I discovered that I had installed Limewire as root...the machine won't delete the files unless you give permissions using chmod to everything in the folder. Either that, or find the incomplte folder as root and delete them manually...

Thanks for the response, but I have ownership of the Incomplete folder and all files in it already. I did do the install as root, I don't know why that would be a problem. I can navigate to the folder as myself and delete anything i want, but for some reason limewire can't. I sent a bug report so we'll see what happens...
