Limewire is slowing down my G4 Cube
 

I have limewire pro and it has been working great. Until yesterday when I noticed that whenever limewire is open all my other apps including limewire respond very slowly.Limewire also began to load alot slower than it did before.

Like I said it worked great then began to slow up and just respond sluggish I couldn't scroll after search results were posted or if I could it would move very slowly.

My mouse pointer is also doing things I've never seen before and then I am not even able to force quit.

I am running on OS 10.2.4 maybe that is the problem I don't know

why does this happen?

please help

thankyou

Sounds bad. Mucho memory and free hard disk space are good hardware fixes for lots of problems. Did you try the usual software fixes? uninstalling limewire, restarting computer in "safe boot" (starting up holding down the shift key), then running Disk Utility to repair permissions, restarting and reinstalling? If you're lucky that might work.

Re the Why? 10.2.4 seems pretty good, but both the Java that Limewire is based on and Limewire are currently being revised. Many of us are waiting for the results--maybe soon. If you search for poster "Clueless," you'll find Acquisition works much better for him.
