Man, that's one humongous picture! Next time, please upload it to imageshack or something and post a linky to it because it really messes up the forum pages.
Thanks.
But that is a pretty nice Desktop you got there, glad you are enjoying Linux. Just FYI, try looking into GTK-Gnutella, it's much much better and faster than Limewire will ever dream of being.I do not respond to private messages asking for Linux help, Please keep it on the forums only.

That's because Limewire uses Java, ugh, 'nuff said.

I prefer frostwire to limewire. Theres also a program called gtk-gnutella which is similar but does not use java.
Your ubuntu looks cool BTW

You have to open Terminal and navigate through Edit Menu of its window.Sorry You said open terminal, but didnt give the commands needed.It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
