It seems to lock up after about 1 min into program. If I start doing searches it starts ok, then all of a sudden the mouse cursor is gone. Total lock-up, I can't even get the control/alt/delete keys to respond, to end program. I am getting very tired of having to re-boot with even the pro-version. I have even done a clean limewire install. Better see what is up with the code on the pro version 2.1.1 and the conflict with possible windows XP Home Edition or something. I will attempt it one more time. I really would like to share music and stop having to re-boot everytime I start the program.

dude i feel ya, i got the same problem.

Kinda sucks! I paid $6.00 bucks for a faulty source code that don't work. I asked for a refund and never got a response back. What's up with this company?

I'm having the same problem, 5 mins into seaching or downloading everything freezes up. I press Ctrl, Alt, Del
and the window comes, saying Limewire (not responding).
I can't belive I paid money ($8.00). Why isn't Pro 2.1.3.
like the old limewire? And another problem I'm having since
"buying" Limewire Pro, whenever I start my computer the
Limewire window opens, the one with the folders 'shared'
and 'incomplete'. How do I stop this from happening?
I am really not happy with this. Someone please help me or
Iwant my money back.

Is anyone getting these problems on non XP machines? We've been unable to reproduce any of these problems here, so any more information would be helpful.

Thanks.

Make sure you are at the latest version of Limewire. I have experienced several different issues with other versions. I have downloaded the newest (free) version with XP, IE 6.0, 600 MHz, 640 MB Ram, 50 GB hard drive and I encounter zero problems with Limewire 2.2.2.

Until now, I have had the same problems.

Here's a tidbit of info about windows XP (home or pro) it released with an issue with java. The only cure is to uninstall the version of java that limewire installed on your system ... the go to sun microsystems http://java.sun.com/getjava/download.html and download the windos xp compatable java client.

Be sure to unistall the version that limewire installed before installing the version that you download.

On next limewire start it will say that it cant find javaw.exe and ask if you want to locate it yourself ... it will be in C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.1\bin

Enjoy.

Thanks Ryan!
I made this a sticky.

Hopefully this will help solve some of these XP problems. Please let us know if this solution works/doesn't work.

I have not had a problem with XP locking up after you start limewire. The only reoccuring problem I have is that if you go outside of limewire while it is running to explorer or IE, and type any key on your keyboard, it preforms an illegal operation and shuts down.

Are you running McAffee antivirus? If you are, try closing it down in the system tray. Does this solve your problem?
