Default note re: x3.6.15 for Classics users!

If you're using Mac Classic and stuck with Limewire and thinking of upgrading, you should just be aware that some of the perks such as launching files to hear before and while downloading or having a limewire player does not apply to the Classics version of this update. I got a snippy response back from Limewire saying their primary purpose is not to be a music management program but for just gnutella file sharing...well, touche, but they should still be responsible and make note of what is and isn't available for each platform on this version, especially since they dont give refunds. AND while you do get more hits and it is a faster download, and overall the upgrad is probably advantageous, if you already have a slow computer, this update will kill it. It really slows down the computer and for me, I had to disable much of their "upgrade perks" anyway to get it working smoothly. There you go, for prosterity's sake.

shamac,
Just how does one find and disable these "upgrade perks" in the newer LW versions?
