Appears at the startup screen and closes the process so I don't even get in. Thus, I cannot edit options in Limewire. |
It might be Java related. Try removing your current version of Java from the add/remove programs section and then download and install the latest version from here(Use the offline installer):
http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Then d/load and install limewire using the offline installer:

If still no joy, try deleting the LW preference folder, points 2 & 3 in this thread:
Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should! Deleting the pref folder will reset the LW options back to the default, so make a note of any changes you've made.
Let us know how you get on.
