limewire update 4.10.5 causing major slowdown
 

I have had limewire for about a year had no problems. I noticed there was an update limewire message flashing and decided to get the new 4.10.5 last week. Ever since then my mac has been running slow as molesas. All the applications are running very slowly. I checked on a different user on my same computer and there are no problems only on my user which is the one with the limewire installed so its not the computer itself. My mac is an emac 10.3.9. Anybody have the solution to this. I checked a few other threads and saw something about limewire slowing down the macs. I don't have a copy of the older version of limewire that I had before this version and I don't remember which it was but I never had any problems til now. Any advice?

slowwwwww
 

I just downloaded lw pro and on 0s X, and like others, find it slow and crashing often. Download speed isn't bad, it's that the program sticks on a selection ad down't allow to select new files.:eek: :mad:

Don't use the Aqua Skin.
 

Hi all

Had the same problem when I downloaded 4.10 . Seemed really slow and the seemed not to display properly !!
Nightmare!! I wanted to go back to my old Limewire but couldn't.. Help

Anyway I deleted everything I could find with 'Lime ' in the title, in desperation, trashed the lot. Re-downloaded and installed direct through Safari as I have had problems with downloads not coming through Safari. Reinstalled and still the same display problems and slow !!

So I tried a different skin and all worked fine !!

Seems like all the other skins available are fine except the Aqua OSX, the one you would use and I think is the default.

Don't use the Aqua Skin.
I do like the Black Skin it's cool...
Try it !!

Would like your feedback
Good Luck
