Are you using the LW player? If so, try using a different one. LW's player tends to skip, pop, and generally mess up, especially if your using your computer for other things while your playing files.

Open LW and go to Tools>Options>Player, untick the box by "Use LimeWire Media Player" > Apply > OK. Your songs will now launch in your default player.

I use winamp but there are plenty of others out there. A good backup player is VLC media player, it has the codecs built in and will play most file types.
