IT WOULD BE A GREAT SITE IF I COULD STAY ON IT FOR MORE THAN 4 MIINUTES WITHOUT GETTING AN ILLEGAL OPERATION MSG AND GETTING BOOTED OFF..ANY SUGGESTIONS??????????????????????????????????????? ???????

i am having the same problem, i keep getting it also, and the longest i can stay online is a few minutes also, it is very annoying

Yikes! I'm glad I'm not having this problem. Why don't you two give us more info to go on, such as operating system, client, internet provider, ect...?

I am having a similar problem but not quite as extreme.I receive the illegal operation message very frequently when trying to open image and video files after they seem to successfully download.Thank god it is not to the extreme of constantly getting booted-I think I would have been frustrated to the point of removing the program by now.The bad news is I have posted twice asking for help and have received zero replies.The program is still very useful for audio files which I have no problem with.I also had alot of problems downloading limewire.As many I was looking for an alternitive to Napster.I was persistant and after several days and many attempts I was successful.I think in concept Limewire is a excellent site,but after reviewing all the posts it is obvious it has many problems and bugs that are going unanswered.I know I have been of no help but you are not alone.There are strength in numbers,maybe when they realize the number of people having a similar problem and that it is not an isolated case someone will be able to give us an answer.
Until then-Good luck!!!

Last few days, I am booted every few minutes for illegal operation. Nothing has changed on my computer. I am running Windows ME. Cable modem. Any ideas?

I'm not sure what is going on either. I have been using Limewire for about 2 months and everything was going fine until these last couple of days. All of a sudden I'm getting 'Limewire has caused an illegal operation in 'unknown'... if this persists try restarting your computer... I also have Windows ME and a cable modem. I can't keep a connection for more than 5 min. Can anyone shed some light?

I'm having the same trouble with LimeWire lately - crashing with illegal operation errors after a few minutes. What gives?!

I can't use LimeWire anymore (illegal operation error) which means I get to have fun blocking all the LimeWire users. Nasty world we live in...

Wow, you guys dug down deep for that "Illegal operation". You may want to try clicking on that "details" button in the future - especially if you want any help. You might as well have been saying "I get an error". Very very vague, and really of no value to anyone trying to help you with your problem.

Well, I have an "illegal operation" as well. Here it is.

I got the same thing. I use Limewire since the Napster thing and everything was OK. But I always got an 'illegal operation' during exiting the program. The last few days I get the following 'illegal operation' after just 20 seconds online, while the hosts are still trying to connect:

Any ideas?
