Limewire 1.8, a Java-based client for Gnutella file sharing network, offers better stability, a chat feature, and an mp3 player built into the app. [Classic, Carbon]
Comments
the older limewire used to tell you how many hosts/files/TB's were available in the bottom left corner. the new version doesn't, so it's harder to know when a given search will succeed--i.e., when there are lots of hosts/files.
I have the previous version installed and it is slow as h***. Has anyone noticed a speed increase ib 1.8?
Just how slow is h***?
Is there anyway to get limewire 1.7 back? 1.8 is 5 times as slow...rarely brings up and decent connections, and doesn't have the connection info at the bottom so i have no idea if my search is even worth the bother. if you have the 1.7 installed yet or know how i can get it back please drop me a line at tinoman@freeze.com thanks
I started a forum topic about issues with the installer (help still needed!) BUT one of the responses so far suggested a method of speeding up the interface, and getting the menu items up in the menu bar where they belong. Here's the thread:

Not JUST an MP3 player built in (which I disabled), Limewire has REALLY come along way since the last release. Theres finally a full amount of options, better search criteria and a much improved installer. Well done guys!
