Does the new limewire 5 have direct connect? I can't find it. Any help please!!

No it does not, it was one of the tools taken out. It does have a much improved Browse host feature though it's called something else. And it has a Friends share option which is more or less the replacement for Direct Connect. You would need to add the person as a friend to direct connect to them. I've never used this function, so I cannot explain any more. All I know is you can list a different set of files to share to a 'friend'.

Thank you!
