Unhappy MP3 Downloads Quit midway through!

I'm on a Mac OS 9.1 and using Limewire 1.7c....... I'm able to connect and able to run a search, I'm sharing 125+ MP3 files....but when I try to download anything it reports "couldn't download" or if it starts downloading it quits about midway through a song. I never had any trouble like this with the older version of Limewire (1.7). Any suggestions?

this the same situation I'm dealing with- I'm using OS 9.1 and limewire 1.7c and get the same thing - I'm on and downloading and then all of a sudden all my downloads just stop-no warning, no type of message- and i can't even get back on the system for about 6 hrs.

I have done some research and apparently we are the victims of some spyware on our macs. I posted a question about mac anti-spyware this week but so far have not gotten any responses, only views. The FAQs recommend downloading a program called Adware, but that's for PCs only.
I emailed the moderator, TuStarWarrior, and he said he would also look for something for those of us of the mac persuasion.
Keep your fingers crossed.

Default maybe

It seems like I'm running out of memory in my "Incomplete" folder, sometimes I can download one song at a time and when it moves over to my "complete" folder I can download another one. If I download more than that or if a song is a big file it will quit because there's not enough memory in my "incomplete" folder. Anybody out there know how to allocate more RAM to this folder or am I just completely incompetent in my Mac knowledge?
