I'm not currently using LimeWire but I sure do know about a lot of the problems !
So, the following first bit may not be 'verbatim'... But, I'm sure you'll work it out.
The problem is only a simple configuration ! Good news, hmmm ?

In LimeWire got to Preferences > "Compatibility" tab > "Settings" > Uncheck mark "run on 640 x 480 screen resolution (or whatever)
> Apply desired resolution settings > Restart your computer > Start LW

WHY this option is incorporated into LimeWire is way beyond my imagination !

Hope it helps... As I said, the above is not necessarily the exact wording that will appear but it's more than close enough !

Last for now, be sure to check out >

Hope it helps !
