I have read many many forums through out to optimize the speed of limewire, and all have done well... but there are all different posts about which java should be used. Could someone please tell me which one is best and where to download/install from please... thanks so much!

Some people were having trouble with the most recent version of Java (version 6)...so we would recommend that they stick with Version 5 update 11. Some Vista users were having trouble with the older version, so we would recommend that they use Version 6.

If you're not having any trouble currently, and you use one of these two versions, I would keep things the way they are. You can update if you want to. If you run into trouble, you can always reinstall the previous release.

Hope this helps

Here are the links:

Version 5 Release 11
Version 6 Release 1

I didn't have either one of those versions on my computer... so i just installed the java 6 and see how that works for me... is it suppose to speed things up?

It may help Limewire run more efficiently, but it probably won't make your downloads any faster.

oh, I was under the impression that doing the Java thing was part of the speed enhancement.... my bad... lol... Well, maybe i have done all there is to do to speed up and better limewire and there is nothing more... I will keep looking to make sure I have done all that I can do. if theres any sugguestions please feel free to share. thanks so much!
