These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

Using a G4 also with 1 gig of RAM, I find that the 9.2.2 OS performs much better than the one running on OS 10.1.4 on the same machine. Is it the Java that makes it run so cr*ppy? Argh, it's awful! In a year and two months of various versions of OS 10 and LimeWire (free and Pro), the ONLY crash I have ever had was while LimeWire was running. The app itself did not "unexpectedly quit", just everything but the pointer stopped working. Forcing a reboot was the only way out. Wishlist: Please fix or abandon Java Please put the "browse host" feature back |

crash unexpectedly quit - type two I just downloaded limewire pro and downloaded a couple of songs but ever since then it crashes after about 5 minutes of being in use. Nothing else is crashing- just limewire. Any ideas? I'm using a brand new g4 OS 9.22 thanks Kate |

I am using Mac G4 OS 9.1 128 MB LimeWire seems to work better (not perfect) when I am running no other applications. NONE! Not only because of conflicts, but because of lack of memory. There are too many problems when running other applications with LimeWire. I don't know if this helps anyone, but that's what I've found. |

crashing... thanks everybody for your help... it's hard not to have any other apps open though! too much to do - I did notice when I used control click to get outside the the program and start working on other projects... and I gave it more memory... it helped. |

Still trying to run LimeWire Pro 2.4 in OS 10.1.4. Spontaneous combustion (app crashes), drags down rest of system if other apps are running, etc. Other users will relate. This is way too bad. I love this program, but it can be a R O Y A L pain unless you want to run nothing else and just share files. Unfortunately, I have to do other things with my computer as well. For the programmers, here is the latest crash log. I'm MORE than WILLING to help do whatever so you can get it right, but I think canning the Java and rebuilding is a good starting point. Sputnix was able to do that, and it's stable. Well, if I could paste the log into this pane, I would do that. But it won't go. I'll try to email it to you guys. |

My specs again: Mac OS 9.1 128MB 10GB hard drive LimeWire 2.4.3 (downloaded a couple of weeks ago) I see that LW is now eating up 108+MB of my memory. I have it set to 64MB. My OS uses 40+MB. That's only leaving me with less than 8MB, making LW run (when it runs) very slow. I thought this problem was fixed in the 2.4.x versions. When I TRY to run LimeWire now, it won't even load the main search page sometimes. The frame of the window is there and the pop-up to "upgrade to pro" shows, but then blank. If I click where "File" is supposed to be, it will appear and I can quit the program. But it sure makes it difficult to search for anything Sometimes it will start up normally and after a few minutes it (computer) will start making noises (like it's working hard at something) and then if I click anywhere in LW such as to check connections or monitor and try to go back to search, the window will not reload. I can click on "File" (it will appear) and I can quit. But this sure is frustrating. I'm sorry to complain about something that I got for free, but if there is another fix out there that I'm not aware of... I did a search of the General Mac Support forums for "Eating Memory" and have read them and tried them all. If Adam reads this, would it still be helpful to e-mail you my "err.txt" and "out.txt" files to review? Thanks all. |

The err.txt and out.txt files may be helpful. It sounds like you're just running out of memory, but there might be something else going on as well. My e-mail is afisk@limepeer.com . Thanks! |
