i have no idea if limewire is at fault or if it is w:a but i know that if i run limewire prior to or while w:a is minimized, limewire will close when focus is returned to w:a.

I'm wondering if Limewire is just being minimized or hidden by loss of focus, seems unlikely but try restoring focus to W:A, then minimizing it again and then pressing CTRL-ALT-DELETE to check the task manager for Limewire running in the background.

If Limewire isn't a running process after all of that... then yeah, problem.

it does close it... if you restore focus to W:A you will see limewire closing... it gets overlayed on top of W:A till it disappears... and it is completely closed... or else id lag pretty severely in games.

plus yes i did do ctrl-alt-delete and it aint there.

or else id lag pretty severely in games.You can consider that as a helpful feature then ;)

Seriously, this is most likely something in Limewire reacting badly to W:A's a bit clumsy front-end.
