Red face Can't install LimeWire on MacOS 8.6... Help!!!

Hello all,

I seem to have problems installing LimeWire on my iMac running MacOS 8.6...

I have downloaded the program - a 7.5 MB file called simply "install" - and double clicked on it, saw the running bar (telling me that something was being installed), but then nothing whatsoever was installed... The only change to my system that I found after this strange installation was that a few hundred(!!!) files were moved to the trash bin... (and it took quite some time to empty it!).

OK, I thought, I probably downloaded the wrong installer... went to the European mirror, which said the file to download would be called "LimeWireMac.bin", downloaded it, but instead got that same file called "install" like it was at my first download from the LimeWire site. OK, then I tried to install this new one, but yet again there was only a heap of files in the trash bin and absolutely nothing else got installed on my mashine...

What is it? Why doesn't the installer install anything?

Any help or work-around will be greatly appreciated!


Thanks to all in adfvance,

Valery
