Is Limewire Pro REALLY faster?

[mgoof95]

I am just wondering whether it will really make a difference to my downloading speeds and chances of getting good sources if I buy LimeWire Pro. So far I have been downloading tv shows and my progress has been so lamentable, I have stopped using Limewire. I had been using it for more than a week, and for days on end, nothing moved. Only one episode got completed (out of 16), and the others either haven't started yet, or are perpetually stuck. Are my fortunes likely to change if i get Pro?

There's no dramatic differences with pro. You connect to 5 peers instead of 3 with the free version thus giving LW better quality connection & for most people better results.

I think perhaps you should see these hints: A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities.

Also make sure you're using the most recent Java: Update your Java version 1.4.x OR version 1.5 (take the JRE)
