Default The New Limewire Is Giving Me Hell - Please Help

first of all - it isn't as easy to access the shared folder.
usually, it's there and you are able to ''explore'' it, making a shortcut to your desktop. this way, you have a solid folder that has all of your music that you can add to itunes, etc.
i know it asks which you want to share and all, and i got it to share a folder i made called ''music.'' so it was all running well: everything i downloaded made its way to this folder, all of my music is on my ipod - awesome.
but today, all of a sudden, when i clicked limewire, it gave me the original options all over again (about shared folders, file types, language, etc.) as if i had never done it. so, i select the folder i want to share, keep the saved folder the same, since i don't really access it, and continue loading limewire. so, i go to download a song, and it doesn't give me my "save as" dialog like it did yesterday, and it begins saving in the save folder.

the ''music'' folder i share is there, and it has all my music in it.
i can see it there on the left of my library.

how can i get limewire to ''always ask'' before downloading a song.
i loved that aspect because not only does it ALWAYS go to the exact folder i want it to, i can fix the format of the name how i like it (different people may put the album in the name, or have it in all lowercase, etc.).
how can i get it to give me that ''save as'' dialog again????

it's so frustrating.
i went through all the options.
somehow i don't know where i was able to select "always ask" before downloading. i can't remember.
in the options, there is one place that allows one to select an "always ask" option, but it is for when you are trying to download the same file twice.
not what i need.

HELP ME.

i know someone uses the ''save as'' for every download...
i know you can right click and get it, but i was able to just double click and it would bring up the music folder with the file name ready to save.


i really hope someone has the answer.
