well i usually use wmp 11... or wmp classic..
is there a way to ask limewire to use a particular player to preview downloading videos?

Your files will launch in whatever your default player is for that file type. Though you can change the default player to something else.

Find your files in windows(not LW). The default location is C:\Documents and Settings\"you account Name"\Shared.

The easy way to find it is to start limewire and go to the library page, click on your shared folder and click the explore button. A window will open with your shared folder in it.

Right click on one of your video files and click on Properties > then click on "Change" > choose the player you want to use from the list > click OK > Apply > OK.

See: Setting Default video app
