umm did you even read my post????

The installs of Java are fine, Every other program works the only program that doens't work is Limewire which for some reason will only work with the Java 5.03 which Limewire itself installs.

Now the reasoning i've been getting from you guys if it works with everything else then its that one thing.

And according to that reasoning then it would be Limewire again.

and let me explain again since somehow you completly did not get my post b4.

if i go to JAVA's website and Download Any Version from their site, whether it's online/offline installation Limewire does not work.

How ever when i Install Limewire and let Limewire install it's Version of Java, Limewire works.(this would suggested a modified Java or Outdated Version of Java that Java does not have[or more so they updated they're version of 5.03] menaing thats why it works)

Now also if i was to install Java 6 from JAVA, and install Limewire, It will not work, But on 2 of my systems if i were to install bitcomet then limewire will work, which suggest that there is some modified file that both programs use but Bitcomet updates that allows the program to function Properly.

Now i'm my Machine when i try this, i'm able to get past the splash screen, and then the Setup menu appears, asking me about where i want the save file directory and what Bandwidth speed i have, once i finish setting this up then the program crash's again.

Now with bit comet not installed i never got the Prefernce thing to come up, limewire woiuld crash before that would ever come up.

Now in all likely hood the reaosn why theres not alot of people having this problem is due in part to them not having Java 6 installed and that Limewire install it's Version which then would install the 5.03 and thus no problem like this.

Also i have not tried updating my version of Java to JAVA 6 now to see if Limewire will continue to work.

If i do Upgrade to Limewire 6 and it stops working again then Limewire is not compatible with Java 6, OR..... there is a Posibilty that there is a conflict with yoru software and some other program with JAVA 6.

I'll update Java 6 now and see what happens.
