Each time I tried I was given the "corrupted installation" message that it appears so many others have received. I tried using the alternate installer with no luck several ties. I've tried using both IE abd Firefox (which is set up to clean itself with every close out. I know I should supply all the system details I can but some of that information I don't know how to find. The old version did not appear in the install/uninstall utility list (we have Windows XP). I believe the original version resided on the desktop because the icon's properties listed it as an application. There is plenty of room on the hard drive. We use Roadrunner broadband service from Time-Warner, through a Motorola modem and a LinkSys switch serving as a firewall. LimeWire worked previously with all this in place and none of it has been changed. System is protected by McAfee Security Suite. Hope I've give enough information for someone to help. Thanks!
In this thread scroll up to #356 and follow the advice given by LOTR -- this problem is happening to everybody who updates to the new version of late. Hopefully the people in Limewire will sort this out very soon.
