I have Limewire 4.8 installed properly. But every time I try to start it my whole computer runs extremely slow. As in my cursor takes a long time to move...that slow. Any ideas as to what might be wrong?

It is hard to tell by the information you entered A little more information is needed then maby somebody can help.

O/S Windows 98/2000/XP
CPU Intel P4/AMD2300+ and ghz
Memory 256/512
LimeWire Version 4.8.1/4.8.9
Java Version 1.5.0
connection type Dial-up /Cable
what other applications are running in the background you can find this out by bringing up the task manager hold down ctrl+alt then hit delete click on processes it will tell you what is running in the background and how much mem is being used.
