Way TOO SLOW! (limewire itself)
 

I start up limewire and the second it starts up it starts to take up all of my cpu mem usage. Running windows xp with 512 ram. the only problem is it has worked fine for about a year and now all of the sudden it sux, could it be my java?

Try the .limewire fix in the link below if that doesn't work follow the instructions below the link.

You will need to install Java and LimeWire manually First go to the first link.You can find Links to java in there Download Java to your hard drive by putting a mark in the save to disk box use the offline installer. Save it to my documents or wherever you save downloads from the internet. Do the same with LimeWire the second link will take you there.

Now with that done click on start then control panel add/remove programs and see if Java is listed on the list if it is uninstall it. Do the same with LimeWire if the un installers were not loaded you may have to manually delete the files. But in most cases this is not necessary.

Now click on the Java installer you saved to your hard drive and follow the instructions after you have completed that do the same with LimeWire.

Please post back and let us know if it worked. If it did not I will give further instructions on manually deleting Java and LimeWire.

no nothing worked, the problem is it is eating up all of my mem usage. i dunno what is causing that and it just started to happen recently

ok i installed frostwire and it did the same thing so i have ruled out it is my java that has an issue. any help?

hey ok so i traveled with my laptop today and when i got to my destination i booted up and for some reason limewire ran on startup even though i have it set not to, and it works perfectly! i dunno how or why but im not complaining anymore
