More details will help us -> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

Sounds to me like you need to add more ram to LW if it is freezing.

Try these things in meantime:

1. Reboot whilst holding down Command + Option keys -> Rebuilds the Desktop file. (this should be done after installing new software AND every couple of months or so)

2. Play with the memory allocations (select program & get info)--LW needs 60,000KB.

3. As Windbars pointed out, it is a good idea to set LW to connect manually not automatically attempt to connect. ie: Open the program, let it settle for 5-15 mins depending on how many shares & incomplete download files you have. Then go to File menu & choose Connect. (click attachment to see larger version of it)

No the newer java is definitely better. Not sure why that happened for you. Perhaps system specific issue or just coincidence.
