To whomever reads this--I have not ever used a system like this before so I really am quite ignorant as to how to do this correctly. I have been trying to install 4.2.5 and am totally unsuccessful. I keep getting an 'error 1714' which says that the older version of Limewire cannot be removed. After that, I get an 'error 1603' which is described as a 'fatal error'. I read some of these notes that have been posted and have already updated 'JRE' but that has not been beneficial. I hope that I have not done something stupid to cause this difficulty myself and would love to find out how to fix it. By the way, I use Windows 98SE if that is of any help. I am sure that there is someone out there who is much more knowledgable who can help me fix this. Many thanks.
