Default limewire keeps crashing my computer

2 days ago, when I opened the program, a window reporting to me "a bug" opened. My computer immediatly froze and I was unable to retrieve or access the info from that pop-up window.

Everytime I open Limewire, it freezes my computer. Sometimes the curser turns into 4 jagged lines and then freezes. Sometimes it remains an arrow.

When I first started using Limewire, I would have a crash every 3rd time that I used it. Now I can't have the program open for more than 20 seconds before a crash.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Limewire 2 times. I've even tried your different versions (pro vs free Limewire).

I have Limewire Pro 4. I am using cable connection. I have a power Mac G4, OS 9.2

Please help me. I am so frustrated to have paid for a program that will not work.

Thank you for your time,
Karen

Karen,

Hi. I thought we solved these problems with 2.8.5. Is that the version you have?

Thanks

Smile Try earlier version

Hi Karen,

We are both set up about the same on our Macs so maybe this will help you.

I also had problems with 2.8.x releases. I had to back up with earlier release that worked for me. Try 2.7.13. I seems to work ok for me. I always do a search and get rid of all the old stuff with LimeWire before I install a new one.
