No, it's not slow, it just runs for between one to two hours then crashes.

I'm out of easy answers for your machines. The latest versions work OK here.

Not sure if it is something in your Home Folder, LimeWire Prefs, or maybe even the OS X system.

If you know how to create a new Admin user account, try that and install LW there. If that one runs fine, then you know your system setup is good, and the problem is in the original Home folder.

If the same problems exist, then it points to LW and/or your system.

Actually, I did just do a clean install of my entire system. It was crashing before that, and it's crashing now. I'll try making a new account and see if that works.

Every other version of limewire up to the the last two versions worked perfectly fine.

Maybe it is OSX.3 Panther that is the problem. I have been experiencing the same problem.

Does anyone have frequent crashes on Tiger OSX.4?

I have the same problem with slow scrolling, hard disk starts going nuts after about an hour or less then crashes. I actually can't quit the application either if I want to close it while still open. Can only shut it off with 'force quit'. I am on G3 imac 450 with OSX panther. frustrating.

Default mac slows down with new limewire

I seem to have the problem that my mac os x (10.3.9.) slows down extremely when i have the new limewire running (which i downloaded yesterday). Limewire doens't seem to work properly either (i keep seeing the WOD). The older ones worked very well, so i don't know why this one doesn't. Does someone know what is cousing this with your computer? And do you know where older versions of limewire can be found (if any)?
