>Will this fix the inability of "Shut down after transfers" from actually shutting-down the app?

Probably not. What exactly is the current problem with "Shut down after transfers"? Is LimeWire always shutting down immediately, or does it take much too long (ie, still allowing new requests and only shutting down when they all finish naturally), or does it never ever shut down? I think that any download, even if it fails and goes to either of the "needs more sources" states will prevent LimeWire from properly recognizing the transfer is finished. Does that seem to be the cause?
