Nothing but requeries, and nothing but slow DL's. I am SO feeling your pain. When I DL directly from a website, it goes lickety-split. Also, it USED to work fine, even in OSX--myold laptop was running Jaguar and I could still DL from LW like a speed demon. Now I get my new laptop, also Jag, and all of a sudden it's like, "Durrrr, I know I just searched for that file, and I told you there were 25 copies of it, but now I'm giving you a requery, or I'll just DL it at 1 byte/second and then crap out after ten minutes." I mean that's not literally what it says but the SENTIMENT IS IMPLICIT.

Is it really a Gnutella issue? Well, so what gives?

No WAY I'm paying $8 or $10 for LimeWire Pro if this is all I can squeeze out of it.
