That is what happend to me. I updated my pro and got regular then RE bought pro & thats when the problems started.
Just curious:one of you all told me I should get the new java (which I did) but noticed when I was removing the old one that my computer says I rarely used it anyway. So I wonder what good it will do for LW if I get the new one? Maybe I have not ever been doing something that I should have. Does that even make since? I mean should I be using java ?? Thanks

hi tml not sure I understand the question but you defanetly need java to run limewire also did the new java fix your problem?

Wondering, is there any way to get more outgoing connections than incoming? And are there any host ip's that I should remove-ones that are of no benefit and slow down results from the fast ones. Being an Ultrapeer is a good thing-I figure the slow speed we get from search results comes from having ip's that should be filtered out.
I asked this before, but what is the highest number of maximum downloads that you have set? Currently I have 125 set, and have also done 150 and 175. It seems to me that the higher the number the more results you can get in one pass. And on that same note, the Get More Sources should be automatically triggered after a search ends so that we don't have to manually do it.


Keep me posted,

It is recommended to delete your LW preferences folder before upgrading to Pro; Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)
Java is necessary for Pro to operate. However many pro users had problems with Java 1.6 so it has been recommended to downgrade Java to 1.5. See instructions & java 1.5 link in point #1 in my link above. ;)

Go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Performance & disable Ultrapeer mode. :)

Here's yet another question that does not relate to the original thread. In the search window when the Location tab is added there are host ip's that are in red. Are these bogus and should I filter them out?
