Limewire 5 on Mac OS X

by purrfectforu Jun 30, 2009 8:55PM PDT

Hello,

I've been trying to run the new Limewire 5 on my Mac but found that its practically useless in regards to search results. I get 1 or 2 returns mostly and then the results aren't really specific but more general. For eg, if I searched for a name it comes up with the person but not so much with the different files that may be attached to that person. This differs greatly from the the other versions. Is something wrong here?

Cheers.
