Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed.

Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8.

Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

2.5.3 beta now available The LimeWire 2.5.3 beta is now available at http://www.limewire.com/index.jsp/download_beta. PRO users can download it from their personal download page. We now have French and German versions available online, so any feedback on translations is welcome. 2.5.3 is virtually identical to 2.5.2 except for a few minor bugfixes:

Is there any law that says that German people shouldn't be made to laugh? Oops! I'm making off-topic posts in an already long thread. I deserve to be flamed! Any trolls out there who'd care to take a shot? |

Connections not remembered Hey I know this is not a top priority thing but ever since you limited the number of connections i want to the network it will not remember how many each time I start up. I have a T1 line set up and I use 10 connections everytime but I have to type it in because the default is always 2 or 3. Even though it sais 10, I have to retype the 10 to get it to actually connect to 10. Agian this is not big deal but can you guys maybe have it remember my prefrences as far as how many connections I want. Since your on a Beta run it would not be that much to add it in the next beta. Thanks. LW version 2.5.3 Beta Pro |

Been running Limewire 2.5.3 on Mac OS 9.2.2 for the last few days. It looks pretty stable and resumes well. No resumed downloads have started over from 0 like they used to. I tried repeatedly killing and re-requesting files (sometimes with different names or from alternative hosts) with no problems. So it looks like the HUGE implementation has kicked in nicely. People are downloading from me like mad, even though I'm on 56k, so my files are obviously visible on the net - perhaps more so than before. Like others, I still haven't found any other 2.5ers to try Browse Host. But I'm sure they'll appear. A minor bug: I've noticed up to four occurences of the same file being uploaded by the same IP (ie. four identical readings occupying four upload slots). I don't know whether this would be due to LW or the downloading client. I had never seen this before. I have since reduced the max-upload-slots-per-IP to one, so this no longer occurs. Another small issue is that some downloads keep stopping: They stop (requery), instantly restart when I re-request them (kill and double click on the search result) then stop again a few seconds later. You would expect downloads to stop because the host is no longer available or because it has used up all of its bandwidth - in which case it wouldn't restart immediately. Odd. If it's a small file then I might sit there re-requesting it each time this happens until the d/l is complete. I suppose the owners of the host could be killing the upload manually, which would be logical if I were hammering them for 10 files simultaneously. But usually, since I'm on a 56k modem, I only d/l one file at a time and rarely more than 5mb so I can't see why they would take such exception to me (other than for uploading so slowly). I don't know.... maybe the colour-scheme of some clients makes people bad-tempered. Again, I have no idea whether this issue is LW related or not, but it's another new one.

Differences between beta and official versions The beta versions include new features and protocol enhancements that are not currently in the release version. Both Basic and Pro versions have their 2.5.x Beta version (the current release is 2.4.4). About the 2.5.x beta versions: The German translation was produced by a native German speaker. But there may still be some quirks in the beta translation. The French translation is tested since several months. There will be also a Spanish translation from a native Spanish speaker. And may be a Dutch version if some Dutch translator helps us to revise the current translation. Support for other non European languages is in progress. Translations can be added and tested on 2.4.x versions of LimeWire, by extracting files from the 2.5.x message bundles in the LimeWire lib subdirectory, and editing your limewire.props file to set an alternate language such as "fr", "de", "es", "nl". Portuguese (po) and Italian (it) translators are welcome to contribute a translated MessagesBundle from either the English or French messages which both are up to date ! Submit your translations by writing to this forum. |

Comments I've been running 2.5.3 for a few days on W2k, sharing about 215 files, cable modem through Linksys router. 1) When LimeWire is open, I notice that there are frequent, almost constant hard drive accesses (about one every 3 to 5 seconds). Looking at the process monitor, javaw.exe is eating up 20 to 35 megs of memory most times, and i can watch CPU usage jump from 0% to around 10% each time the drive is accessed. I'm not downloading, and no one is uploading, so I can't figure out why it's reading and writing so much. This has been a problem before, but it went away after I left the program running for a few hours. I left it overnight last night, and it's still making noise today. 2) Maybe it has something to do with all the shoddy Morpheus UPs, but I'd estimate that 95% of my downloads attempted from 2-4 star results immediately end up in Requery mode. The only reliable success I have is with one-star hosts that happen to be busy at the time. Perhaps 2.5 final could have a vendor filter... Haven't had much trouble other than that (but I also haven't had any incredible 8 host downloads either ) Brandan L. |
