I don't think that one is right for me. It seems to be for people who get into LW but cannot use it. i cannot even get LW to open. The sticky that made sense for the issue I'm having is this one:

"Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't working as it should"

I have, literally, tried every option presented there, including a few variations of my own (restarting between the uninstall and installs, including between EACH intsall).

Thank you SO much for looking and offering me the advice.
I sincerely appreciate it.

Though I don't think it is the issue, I am going to go check out my graphics card settings (ATI radeon 256).
