Yes, but you see the problem is that this is happening in the background (some 60 secs after Limewire v3.9.11/12 has scanned the Shared folders and established connections). I hear disk activity, it stops and CPU usages jumps up. Of course I have no idea which MP3 file is being read at the moment (if indeed that is what LW is doing). Perhaps you could add this to the information currently displayed very briefly at the bottom of the Search window on startup, but I can imagine you don't want the interface to get too busy.

In any case, I have backed down (temporarily I hope!) to 3.9.10 which doesn't have this problem.
