as above and other things too...
 

i am running limewire pro on os x, it keeps cutting out on me also, not the programme though, just the connection, and in addition to this the limewire connection break also disconnects me from the web, however my web connection is fine when not running limewire, it just seems to be that which causes the problem.
another thing, i noticed there is a section in preferences for filtering, now all mine is set to "off" i dont appreaciate all the porn that shows up, but it does, why is it that when i type into the search "porno for pyros" (rock band), i get cut off immediatly? whats the score? i take it its ok to peddle kiddie porn through limewire, but not music that happens to have the word "porno" in the title? sort it out limewire

Since disabling the ultrapeer ( I went back and made sure it was applied ) I have not had it cut out on me one single time. So thank you for your advice, it seems to have done the trick and I have downloading like crazy sharing hundreds of files now. Thank you guys for your support.:)
