Just letting you know that I've had that same problem with the last several versions. It starts over every single time.

I downloaded this latest version in hopes that the problem would be fixed. Now I can't run LimeWire at all without it freezing my whole computer.

It doesn't seem like too many people are having these problems though. Feeling alone, I've given up. I just posted a new thread recommending Acquisition, although I now see that there have already been whole threads about it. In any case, Acquisition works much better on my system, which is a G4 500 running OS 10.2.3
