What can I do? PLEASE HELP
My guess would be a Java problem.
Try the following: uninstall LW and all Java versions you've installed. Then download the JRE off-line installer of the newest Java version:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp

Install this version and afterwards install LW again.
Let us know if that helped to solve the problem
