what to do about 1000 percent cpu usage
 

when i try to cancel a bunch of files at once limewire freezes and is using 100 percent of the cpu, what should i do?

If you cancell a very large number of files after running LW for wa while this is a possibilty.. to look better at the problem I think some more details would help us. birdy has a good list of things that will help here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?t=62652 It is a list to cover all evenualities so you may think some details are not needed, but every little helps :)
