I tried this and it would not let me delete that file.

help, i had limewire version 4.12.6 & when i logged on to limewire last night it AUTOMATICALLY started to download version 4.14.10 i don't know why or how but it did. i then tried to go about my business & it will not allow any connection to download, a window pops up & says, "go to file & hit connect etc, etc, etc" i tried that & the connect is already in use & when i exit limewire it will not exit, the icon goes away but a window with a bar (back & forth) says disconnecting & it will not. I have to turn off my computer to get it off the screen. I want version 4.12.6 does anybody know where i can download it, i tried many sites but it justs updates it to the newer version. Thank you

Try the beta 4.13.x Lime Wire » Download LimeWire Beta
The forced updates are due to changes in the gnutella network. They want everybody to keep pace otherwise those with older versions have a negative impact on the gnutella network. ;) Other gnutella programs are also upgrading.
Not much to complain about schroeder, it's a free program, & think of how much you have gained from it.

Thank you very much for the info.
