I've been using Limewire for about 6 months.....and it works great. I have a cable connection and I never have a problem with downloads or losing my connection.

But (here's the big but), If I allow LW to run (because others are downloading from my files) and I walk away from my computer for more than 10 minutes.....when I come back the connection to LW is disconnected and I have a pop up from Zone Alarm that says LW was locked.

I've checked my zone alarm settings and I don't have the internet lock set on lock.

And it never disconnects when I'm sitting at my computer actively searching and downloading songs.

any thoughts? Thanks -- Alice
