 Can't access options menu or anything!  I've almost had it with Limewire Pro! I was connecting and downloading ok yesterday, then it went haywire. The program on startup would tell me I was sharing over 1,000 files, stuff I know I don't have on my computer. What's wore is that it locks my computer up and I have to close down through cntrl-alt-dlt. I did manage to stop sharing the folder but now I can't access any of the options menus to setup limewire. Everytime I click on options or configure, it just flashes the option screen for a tick and then nothing! Here is all the junk you guys need. I'm using Limewire Pro 4.16.6 with Java 1.6.0_05. I am running norton antivirus and spysweeper and have them both configured to allow Limewire. I'm connected through a cable modem, Motorola SBS5100. I'm in an apartment and my ISP is Bresnan Communications. I'm in The USAPlease rush urgent help! Thank you guys!!!  |
