Go ahead and download the 4.0 version from their site, IT IS THE 4.0.9 version. They just never updated the test on the site.

Though the Limewire site says they no longer support OS 9, this latest build is much faster and worth the download. Where version 4.0.1 was slow and took forever to complete tasks, this version is almost bearable though it is clear the Windows clients are getting all the attnetion. Get this one though folks, you'll be glad you did even if its the very last one they ever release.
