I need some help/advice..

[Powder Puff]

Ok... I've got bear share and limewire..

When they have been running for no more than 5 minutes, they just shut down automatically.. It's pissing me off, since I mostly download at night, when I go to sleep..

I also had Bitlord for a little while, but it did the same thing..

Could any one help me??:)

Later

blablabla..

I've tried to many different programs.. They all do the same thing when they've been on for a few minutes.. Some last me like half an hour and others last shorter.. Depends on what I'm dl'ing.. Bearshare is the best.. The weirdest thing is, they only shut down WHEN I'm downloading.. I noticed the other day that they don't shut down if nothing is dl'ing.. ??

[WeedLovingVeteran]

Ares rocks :D

[Powder Puff]

Nope..

No nothing..

Kindof ironic that you pay for software that revolves around piracy and you get get better results with free apps. Maybe I'm sober to the point of lunacy but I though it was funny

I actually downloaded the PRO versions on Limewire standard..:p hehe But don't tell anyone.. Still.. The same PRO versions work on many of my friends PC's.. It's only me who has problems with it.. damn..:p

[Pulse]

i could be your firewall mine sometimes wont let my limewire to conecet

[Joy.Discovery]

well for me 'Spyware doctor' Shuts down Bearshare when i turn it on. do you think your anti-spyware/antivirus software is doing it? you should try disable them and see if it still happens

[VoidLivesOn]

Fuck all the bullshit just get SoulSeek.

LOL. I figured you had prolly done that. I've never had much luck with mot P2P software (crashes VIRUSES and corrupt files). It wasn't till I started using bit torrent a few years ago that I stopped having problems. The only issue I'm having is when I start grabbing torrents at speeds over 200kbps. I get the BSOD every now and then. I beleive it's an issue with my router because another pc connected through the same lan is having similar issues.

[Powder Puff]

Hmm... Joy.. That makes sense.. I can connect and shit, but after a few mins, then it shuts down.. I've downloaded a few gigs of music and movies this way and it's seriously pissing me off.. lol:p I'll try and see id anything happens if I shut down my firewall.. (I'll probably just get a bunch of new spyware to delete...:p) haha
