Default LimeWire freezes on me, what do I do?

I'm running the latest LimeWire (4.0.5) on my iMac, I've had 4.0.5 since it came out and now it freezes on me when I start it. It also freezes a LOT in the middle of verifying completed downloads.

I'm using 56K dialup, PowerPC G3 processor, 160 MB physical RAM, Mac OS 9.2.2 with a 6GB hard drive about 60% filled now.

Finally, when I do manage to get LW to work, it spends 90+% of the time awaiting sources. It can spend 4 hours awaiting sources and still be at 0% for a 16MB file that should take an hour or so to download even with my POS internet connection.

What should I do about this? And don't tell me to upgrade to Mac OS X, I also have OSX 10.0.4 running on the same comp, I don't get as much freezing/crashing there but LW claims to be offline after 20-40 minutes even if the internet connection is still active. And it does nothing about the annoying as Hades awaiting sources crap I get.

HELP!
