The problem with being redirected to artistdirect has been solved with the newest version of LW, which you can download here:
http://www.limewire.com/

If that doesn't solve the freezing (though it will solve being re-directed), you will have to read here:

A general advice regarding downloads. Avoid files which show up in the search results with hundreds of hosts; choose from files with some 10-20 hosts. Also try o use the "Look up with Bitzi" function to check the file before you download it.

There is no 4.12.8 yet, I think you mean 4.12.3 perhaps.

The freezes link FOTH left above is for windows not OSX. Which version of LW are you using now that you uninstalled the new version?

If upgrading to pro, it's often best to delete your LW preferences folder whilst LW is closed, found here: /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire

It would be helpful to know which OSX version you're running so specific advice can be given.
