wondering why is just really nice
Default 4.11.1

Hi Guys, I have a problem (again lol)
I have installed the Beta LW and I downloaded a couple of songs and it was running great, but now I cant even open the bloody thing it just does nothing...
I cant run the Beta Java either because it wont work with some of the other stuff on the comp...
should I just go back to the other LW???

Well you'll need at least Java 1.5 for the beta. Before you do anything like uninstalling, try deleting the LW prefs folder whilst LW is closed. Keep in mind they could be in either of 2 locations so check both locations. Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)
BTW which programs won't run with the Java beta?

It is starting to sound like 4.11.1 is a little buggy you can report the problem to the link below.

There's a lot of changes in the engine room for this beta so I guess it's not surprising there's some bugs. Perhaps I should have waited for 4.11.2 before I recommended it. oops

Hi, I have Java 1.5 update 6
The Beta Java wont run with Runescape an online game my son is addicted to and it made his MSN account play up as well...
I will get onto the Pref folders now and I will post back to you...

Id love to fix this as when I did download an MP3 last night I had 1 host and I was getting 17KB/s from it...

Easiest way would be to reboot. It sounds like LW is not properly shutdown. Wait a while.
Control-Alt-Del & bring up Process Manager to see if LW is still listed.
