Limewire freeze out.

[flaime]

Ok i used to be able to run Limewire fine on my old computer, but ever since i have got my new computer i have been expieriencing big problems.

When i load up Limwire, immediately my computer locks up and everything stops.

It then seems that my computer is still running but at about one thousand times its actual speed. I eventually manage to bring up my task manager and get my mouse over the the limewire process and end it, which is very hard seeing as the mouse movement is going at about 0.5 frames per second.

Once i end the limewire process everything returns to normal.

I have the latest version of limewire, and all new drivers.

I think it may be a problem with java because occasionaly this happens with other programs.

The problem is not my system simply running out of CPU because it has 1 gig of ram and amd athalon 3500 running on it.

Any replies or solutions would be really appreciated,

Thanks
