I'd been using limewire for a while until last week when it refused to start up. I got a box saying that Limewire had encountered a fatal internal error and would exit. I have tried to read around for ideas on how to fix this problem and I have tried the suggestion on
http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=32552
But nothing seem to work. The grey box that keeps coming up gives me an option of Send, Review or Discard. They suggested I send the information (viewable in Review) to the limewire bug email address, which I have done but have not yet received a reply for.
Can anyone here please help me? I really liked Limewire and am reluctant to have to use something else! Below is the information:
LimeWire version 4.8.1
Java version 1.5.0_02 from Sun Microsystems Inc.
Windows XP v. 5.1 on x86
Free/total memory: 310824/5873664
