Lightbulb Is LimeWire able to download torrents?

I'm a little new to limewire. I've been only using it for a couple months, but in this time, I've wanted to down load torrents. I have been using morpheus for torrents, but its come that time where I find limewire better. So if there is anyone out there that could tell me if limewire is able to download torrents, and how to set it up so it does?

The official release LW 4.12.6 can't use torrents. However the beta 4.13 can; http://www.limewire.com/english/content/beta.shtml

You have to remember it's just a Beta, and also if you use private trackers, some may not allow Limewire as a download client. I've had trouble with one or two myself (Can't remember from which site, cause I tried a few. Think Dime was one of them)

On the torrents that say need more sources you could try an alternative app. like Azureus.

I'm sure that improvements will be made to Limewire before the final release.
