I have Mac OSX. I've been using basic Limewire for a long time, but accidentally uninstalled it. Now I'm trying to install it again, and when I click the button on the website to get the installer, it just downloads an Excel sheet w/ a bunch of jumbled up code on it. Sorry if someone else has already posted about this, but I looked through a lot of posts and couldnt find an answer to this. After reading some previous posts, I also tried the jum version, but when I click on the link I get a message that says the computer doesnt know how to handle this file and I can "choose and application" to run it but i have no clue about that. I also tried the beta version, but when i try clicking the .dmg file an error comes up. How can I get Limewire to download an installer that actually works???

i'm having the same problem. any luck with an answer yet?

In the manual, it says that if you use Safari to download Limewire, it opens it automatically. I just tried that and it worked.
