Is "/" an illegal character for Mac?
 
Hey, I realised that everytime the file for grabs includes "/", I get an error message saying, "Could not move to library", and also shows that progress of DL has 100% completed (which is incorrect).

So, is "/" causing this "Could not move to library"? I know that ":" is an illegal character, but "/"...

And if so, is there any way I can DL files with "/" included in the filename?
Thanks people.

Yes the slash is what is causing the problem. I don't know of a workaround. If LimeWire failed moving something to the library it should keep the file in the Incomplete folder and not have it vanish into the ether. Alas it doesn't do this.

This thread also talks about the problem:

Thanks, efield.
I just went through the other thread. It looks like this is an unsolved but at least noted problem. I'll keep looking for some way around...
Meanwhile people, please kindly don't include "/" in your file name!!
