I do not know if you have tried editing you registry usually you dont have to. But LimeWire should be using some CPU it sounds like a bad install but I do not know for sure.
Step#1
First uninstall Java and LimeWire if you can then follow the instructions below.
You will need to go to Start/Run type regedit into the box this will open the registry editor
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER go to software expand it look for Java Script if you find it delete it. Now collapse it.
Now go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE go to software expand it look for Java, LimeWire & Magnet delete them if you find them.Collapse it
Now go to HKEY_USERS go to S-1-5-21 the first one then go to software expand it look for java if you find it delete it. Collapse it. Close registry editor now go back to the original instructions and manually install Java then LimeWire.
Be careful when you are in the registry do not delete anything other than I listed above you can mess up your machine if you accidentally uninstall something or change your registry settings.
Step #2
You will need to install Java and LimeWire manually First go to the first link.You can find Links to java in there Download Java to your hard drive by putting a mark in the save to disc box. Save it to my documents or wherever you save downloads from the internet. Do the same with LimeWire the second link will take you there.
Now with that done click on start then control panel add/remove programs and see if Java is listed on the list if it is uninstall it. Do the same with LimeWire if the un installers were not loaded you may have to manually delete the files. But in most cases this is not necessary.
Now click on the Java installer you saved to your hard drive and follow the instructions after you have completed that do the same with LimeWire.
Please post back and let us know if it worked.
