Unfortunately older versions of pro are not available. Otherwise everyone would be getting free pro versions. I'm not sure about the difference between 4.12.6 & 4.12.11, but you can check the changes here Changelog - LimeWire
Some versions behave better for some people's set up compared to other versions. It's not an easy answer.

Looks like the changes are minimal (for me). A couple of more days to verify stabilization and I'll upgrade to a PRO version. Thanx for your help Lord of the Rings.

Sorry guys! I didn't see one of the post above that had the same problem with it closing right away. I'm checking all of the recommended threads now. Thanks!

ok, tried and tried and still the same thing. As soon as Limewire opens and ask me to automatically add files to library or whatever the other choice is, it shuts down! I don't even have enough time to read what the second thing says. Any suggestions???

If you removed all versions of Java, did a registry clean, then installed the offline Java & still problems, then either a different version of Java or a setting on LW.

Have you tried (a) setting LW to run as Admin. by right-clicking the program file. (b) tried different compatibility settings depending on which windows you are using. You didn't specify. eg: right-click LW change compatibility to NT or win 2000 or XP, etc.

The problem 'might' also be your video card settings.

Hi mfranson,

Have a look through the thread below - there are a couple of different things to try
"Could not open input file for splittet files"

my guess is that you are not actually downloading the installer, rather opening it up and trying to install directly...

DOWNLOAD the installer then use it..
