i know this is simular ro my last problem, but actually its different. i cant preview a song or movie/video without error message popping up saying limewire has enciountered a problem and must close at this time. i can preview them under windows media player but that is just aggrevating to have to go back and forth between the two. everytime i launch song,ect. this happens. i have went back to the version of wmp that i previously had like you suggested and uninstalled and reinstalled limewire. still same problem occurs anymore suggestions? anyone else having this problem? thanks for your help in advance. this is driving me crazy!!!!
