Well, my thx for the help, all appears to be working well.

Basically, I uninstalled Java and Limewire, reinstalled them both, still did not work, same problem, actually crashed my computer a couple times.

Though stuff it, might as well reinstall SP2.

With SP2 reinstalled all works fine, hopefully there are fixes around for the trouble I had with it to begin with.

Cheers.

Vas.
