Is there an official way to update free limewire to a newer version (2.2.3 -2.2.4 eg.)?

I have been uninstalling limewire, throwing out the files, then installing the new one, but that's a pain as I have to designate the libraries again. Is there a better way to do this (just using the new application for example?)?

Thanks

The easiest way is to replace "LimeWire.jar" and "MessagesBundle.properties" with the newer files.

That should work more or less.

oops, I figured it out.

When you load up an older version of limewire, it asks you if you want to update. If you click "yes" it quits limewire and opens a browser to the download page on www.limewire.com. I had thought that this was the same download page as a complete download, however when you download from this page, into the same folder in which the previous "limewire" folder is, it does an update -- it circumvents autosetup and keeps libraries and preferences.

I think this is the intended method.

Thanks for the reply
