Default Where are Limewire Settings Saved?

I'm trying to find where the settings for Limewire are saved to after I edit them within Limewire. Are they stored to a file, to the registry or elsewhere?
Thanks

This is the location of the Limewire 'preferences' folder (Windows XP):

C:\Documents and Settings\*yourusername*\Application Data\limewire

Note: The Application Data folder is HIDDEN. In order to find & access it, you'll need to turn on the show hidden files & folders option.

Hope this helps

"limewire.props" is somewhere in your system. The location depends on
whether it is Windows, OSX or linux and you shouldn't try to open it until you
exit LimeWire completely.

Once you find that file you will find several others in the same folder (or
directory, depending on your operating system)

Thank you, this worked. Do you happen to know of a way to change the location where it can be stored? I'd rather move it somewhere else or is it hardcoded?
