okay, i have a bizzare problem. whenever i start limewire 2.4, the program begins to connect to as many hosts as possible. i try to limit the number of connections to 6 in the connections window, but that doesn't seem to work--limewire keeps connecting until it hits 80 or 90 connections (yikes!) and then the program crashes. this hasn't ever happened before. i've tried reinstalling and everything.
