Limewire kills internet connection

[David Crabtree]

OSX 10.4.6: Limewire 4.10 opens and the incomplete cued items begin looking for sources then the internet connection is lost. I have to unplug the Bellsouth Westel DSL modem and the belkin wireless router to reset the connection. This just started this week. Until just a few days ago this had never been an issue. There are 2-3 other machines on this LAN with Limewire and they don't kill the internet connection. However this is the machine that has the heavieset Limewire activity. What would make Limewire completely kill the network connection. None of the other machines can connect or loose connection at the same time. Once the modem and router are reset the other machines have great connectivity and so does the problem machine; until we open limewire.
