Pearl,

I found 2.8.6 at VersionTracker.

Clueless,

I've hardly had the time to try it out -- maybe over the weekend -- first reaction: same as 2.8.5, namely

1. Window Manager bug appears to be there still [I'll run some serious tests tomorrow].

2. Once download requests go into a "requery" loop, they stay there -- only if I do search and the file I'm interested appears does LimeWire attempt to connect. What's the meaning of the Requery loop, if LimeWire doesn't try to reconnect everytime it reaches zero?

3. All files in the "Waiting...busy" state eventually return to "Requery." This seems to be another aspect of the seven minute rule.

4. A 2.8.6 user is currently trying to upload from me but somehow the upload file name has gotten scrambled. I tried to initiate a chat in order to tell him, but the chat window simply doesn't appear. Since I rarely use chat, I can't say if this is new or not.

More when I find the time.
