Question 100% CPU usage

This is really weird and I don't know how to stop it. I use Windows XP and I have the latest Limewire programme. On ocassions using Limewire and the Internet bumps my CPU usage up to 100% and the internet crashes and I can't open any other programme. I have looked at my task manager and Limewire and Monitor are the only two programmes that have any CPU usage. Limewire using over 90%.

I have deleted all but a handful of audio files and there is only one incomplete file - I don't understand how Limewire can be using so much space. Is there any way to reduce this? Is this common?

Any and all help is much appreciated.

Scottishdane!

See if updating Java helps. Use the JRE offline installer & remove any old Java versions before you install the new one.

You could also try using the Beta version of LW, that's helped a few people with CPU useage issues.

You could also disable ultrapeer capabilities (tools > options > speed, or in the Beta tools > optoins > advanced > performance).
