I too have good results running LimeWire under OS/2 with the Java 1.4 package from InnoTek. I have been downloading the Solaris version and unpacking it. It might be nice if there was a Zipped package distributed in addition to the .gtar, but it is not that big a deal to deal with.

My only observation is that LimeWired tends to crash pretty regularly (I've written a simple script to restart it automatically). I wonder whether this is the LimeWire code or the Java implementation.
