Limewire's raising my cpu usage to 100% Any particular reason for this? I have a Pentium4 3.5mhz 1gig of ram, and 500gigs of hard drive space |
Currently, I have Limewire Pro 4.12.3 and Java 5.0 I believe |
CPU usage 100% I have had the same problem today - CPU usage 100% - removed and reinstalled Java j2SE RE v5.06 - removed and reinstalled limewire and frost wire 4.10.9 beta - process using CPU is javaw.exe no joy please help me understand why this is happening? cheers, nr |
as Sleepless mentioned, the latest version of Sun Java is Java j2SE RE v5.08...so try uninstalling Java yet again, and dowload and install the latest release and see if that helps |
CPU usage 100% I know and I was running j2SE RE v5.08 earlier - as it was using 100%, i reinstalled v5.06 cheers, nr |
alrighty then, sounds indeed like you have followed a logical 1st step of action.. now let's try a 2nd step...download and install both AdAwareSE and SpyBot search and destroy, install them, update them (as a note, w/spybot I suggest one of the Safer Networking servers to download from), then run them...I'll bet they find something on your machine...if they do, try running LW again and see if your Java is still acting up..if that fails, post back and we'll try a HijackThis scan and see what it turns up... |
Try these fixes, even though you don't get an error. Might help http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000041000.xml |
CPU usage 100% folks, i should have mentioned this - ran adaware and spybot before i posted - also ran sleepless links for java error - ran antivirus software - also ran hijack thid no joy now lime wire.exe is the s/ware using 100% cheers,nr |
- thanks for that and no it didn't work - neither have i tried this software - i am just trying to see what lime wire is all about but it doesn't work - now only if someone would tell me where the limewire preferences folder is located, then as suggested by sleepless, i will delete it as the next step - all in the name of understanding Gen Y talk of course cheers, nr |
For deleting the preferences folder, see points 2 & 3 below. Just make sure LW's closed before deleting! Fixes for LimeWire |
