I need help!! Limewire worked fine for a few days and i downloaded a few songs, but when i try to shut down my computer it CANCELS it, and won't let me quit the program. I go to the file menu of Limewire, and the quit program part is grey, so i can't click it. I have tried everything. Please help

Salut Emma, do alt-apple-escape keys together and force quit LW. Alternatively, go in applications -utilities open process viewer select the LW process and stop it.

Bonne chance

I have the same problem. Limewire won't when quit is selected from the File menu. Neither will it quit when I use Command+Q. It worked fine until I upgraded to 4.2.6. I always have to use Force Quit.

Make sure your LW Preferences>Shutdown is set to Shutdown Immediately. Also, unless you intentionally run as a ultrapeer, go to Prefs>Speed & tick the Disable Ultrapeer capabilities & press the Apply button.

In OSX, if you haven't run Disk Utility > Repair Disk Permissions, you should do so. I was having this problem as well, and had to resort to force quitting until I ran Repair Disk Permissions.
