Looking around tonight at the enormous number of people with the same problem, and seeing also that this goes back at least a week or so if not more, I am amazed that 2.1.3 is still available for download?

There is a clear software problem with this version, that is going to:

put new users off Limewire for life
put new users off Gnutella completely for life
put existing Limewire users off for life

I am going to try something else, along with probably most of the silent minority, who don't turn up at the forums.

Someone at Limewire needs to take an executive decision.

I am particularly irritated that this problem was public knowledge BEFORE I started to waste a lot of my weekend trying to get this to work. Limewire could easily have prevented this from happening.

Anyone know what other good Gnutella clients there are out there?
