Thumbs down LimeWire 4.2 Won't Quit in OSX

Is anyone having problems with new version of Limewire not quitting in OSX 10.3.6? I have to do a force quit to end my session. Not good.

Did you do a SAFE Start & Repair Permissions after installing LW? It's always wise to repair permissions both before & after installing softw. Otherwise strange things can happen & odd behaviours.

If it still keeps doing it, install Java from the Standalone Java installer Many people have complained of odd things since updating to OS 10.3.6 which suggests issues whilst updating online.

No problems with shutdown here, but I have the shutdown preference checked to "shutdown immediately"

I think the default preference (included as a courtesy) says to quit after pending transfers are complete before shutting down.

Same thing here after updating to 4.2.2 Pro. I had to force quit.

Cmd-Q minimized the LimeWire window instead of quitting, and selecting Quit from the LimeWire menu had no effect.

LM was also automatically launched at startup.

From reading this thread, it seemed that after updating to 4.2 (some) preferences were overwritten.

In my case the "Shutdown" option was reset to after competed downloads and auto-lauch at start-up was on.

After resetting the "Shutdown" option to immediately, I was able to quit normally using Cmd-Q.
