Limewire problem.
 
Limewires working just fine but when I close the program, about 5 seconds later the loading box re-appears and I can't ever have Limewire closed. Does anyone know how to fix this?

That happened to me. Limewire sucks, get Ares.

ZeRoZX524 08-22-2006 08:20 PM

Can anyone tell me whats wrong? If not I'll download Ares, or something.

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 03:01 AM

Just use Ares. I thought it sucked at first, but I got use to it and I find it way way better than Limewire. :)

darkphaux 08-23-2006 03:03 AM

what is the differance between the two?

ZeRoZX524 08-23-2006 03:21 AM

Yea, whats the difference. Why is Ares so better? As in...?

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 03:27 AM

It takes like two seconds to load up. It's virus free. Limewire was covered in them. I think it has an easier and useful interface. Just generally its more unique than Limewire.

ZeRoZX524 08-23-2006 03:31 AM

Are download speeds good?

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 04:14 AM

Well mine are yeh.. Just try it and see for yourself and if you don't like it; there is always the uninstall option.

ZeRoZX524 08-23-2006 04:19 AM

Got 12 songs in 5mins including installation, your right Ares>LimeWire thanks for the help.

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 04:23 AM

It's no problem, I just always sit back and laugh at people who use Limewire and say "It's the best."

metehan 08-23-2006 04:37 AM

btw make a virus scan maybe u got a virus from limewire.....

ZeRoZX524 08-23-2006 04:45 AM

Hahaha platinum, theres alot of people who say that huh?

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 09:03 AM

Limewire doesn't have a virus. The virus comes from the files you download. If you use a P2P program A LOT you have a very good chance to get a virus. Also, Morpheus is and will always be the best.

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 10:14 AM

I never said Limewire is a virus, I meant to say that the files you downloaded can come with a virus.

Bekah 08-23-2006 10:35 AM

its got chat too whilst you wait kind of thing >.> lol

PlatinumAudio 08-23-2006 10:39 AM

nick 08-23-2006 02:08 PM

i use Limewire Pro and i love it :D I also download torrents for full albums or whole band collections :D

Caffienater 08-23-2006 07:36 PM

If Limewire is doing that just press ctrl, alt, delete, and go to processes. Then delete the limewire process.

Ares has viruses, just like all programs in that catagory. Limewire is more popular; meaning it has more songs. I have tried ares, limewire is faster. Just dont download stuff that is 15 kbs or a 5 minute song that is 500 kbs etc.

ZeRoZX524 08-23-2006 09:57 PM

Ctrl alt delete won't work on my comp. Happened after limewire was installed. I dunno if limewire did it though.
