Oh Oh!!! You've been ripped off. I think you will find you paid for LW Basic which is free from here: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml

See 1. Membership? - **WARNING ** BEWARE** - Download p2p Clients ONLY Thru Official Sites, & also 2. Known Scam Sites, & then this 'might' help: 3. get your $$$ BACK!!! (music members)

* After downlding the Java, you then need to install it. Unzip it if it's zipped & open the installer to install it. The problem is when you get LW from a scam site, you don't know if you're getting the official basic version or a changed version which may also have adware, spyware, etc. Who knows what they might have done to the program. (There's been reported scam versions that have had viruses, spyware, etc.) Only use the official version. Uninstall the version you have via Add/Remove control panel, then downld the "offline" installer from the lw site & install that.
