yup... those are the steps that i took... and it worked the first time too!

i basically have root priviliges with my login...eric, maybe you are using a login that doesn't have full priviliges??

also, remember that Unix is case sensitive....

type "sh LimeWireMacOSX.sh" and see if it makes a difference. you seemed to have typed all lower case letters.

Here are my instructions again...just for reference:

1. d/l the file
2. open terminal window, and go to path of where file was d/l'ed
3. type "sh LimeWireMacOSX.sh" (remember...unix is case sensitive)
4. message appears saying "Preparing to install..." (this will take a few minutes ...be patient and let it run...
5. window will appear...choose install folder/path
6. once completed...navigate from command line to LimeWire directory....
7. once in LimeWire directory...type "./LimeWire"
8. again, wait a few minutes...and the nice graphical interface of LimeWire will appear...the application is simply "java" as far as the finder is concerned...

Hopefully that helps,
Cheers
