Serious Help... Limewire Closes Everytime I Maximize...
 

Ok, I just got a new computer. Before on my other computer Limewire worked perfectly fine, but now, if I try to maximize to a full screen program (such as a game), it just CLOSES, completely closes the entire client, which is really annoynig. Also, I can't seem to double click songs to play 'em as well, just little things like that are different which I think may be linked to my new computer's settings in some way... can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

Can you provide a little more info.

All I can tell you is I'm encountering unusual problems, such as Limewire immediately (and completely) closing for no reason at all once I maximize another program (full screen). Maybe has something to do with my cookies?

Anyone have any idea how to fix this...?

Hm... information posted, any answer now?

i get the same problem
 

i am yet another user of loimewire and i get the EXACT SAME THING!

from looking at your details, the only similarities seem to be avg antivirus, we both have windows xp and we both have a dsl connection.

the only problem is, these are the same at my dads but it works fine.

help anyone?

It didn't work with Norton either... I have no idea, I guess none of these guys seem to know how to fix this issue with THEIR client as well since no one is directly answering the question... anyways, it's so awkward how almost a duplicate of my previous computer can change these features so drastically and cause so many problems...

a possible solution
 

:bangh: hmm

i just reinstalled world of warcraft at my dads due to a corruption in a file and once it was reinstalled it worked fine, but now limewire is doing exactly the same thing as what it is here.

Do you by any chance have the game, if so perhaps we can come to a conclusion over the problem
