Default Question regarding upgrading

Just to confirm: If I upgrade to the newer version, will I lose all my downloads that are in progress? Or will I need to start over and search for them all again?

I'm currently using 2.4.4 on a Mac G4 OS 9.1

Thanks.

I don't think so, since 2.6.3 should be backwards compatible as far as the downloads.dat file is concerned.

I'd make a backup of the downloads.dat file in your "Incomplete" folder, - just to be sure.

Thanks, Kreiger88.

When I've downloaded newer versions before, a new LimeWire folder with the new app and files is placed in my old LimeWire folder. It didn't overwrite my old LW info. So, if I install the new version and place my old "downloads.dat" into the Incomplete folder, I should still have my previous downloads show up when I run the program? But, I guess since alot of these have never begun to download it would be no big deal if I lost them anyway.
