I have again tried to install and run Limewire, this time v.4.18.1
I have the latest Java, there are no blocks in my zone alarm or AVG - in fact I have even tried to load the program while those were shut down.
Still I'm having the same problem I had in Nov 07 - the interface loads, but the application does not open.
There are no posts that I have yet found that apply to this situation. I'm using the same computer I described in my previous post. I have 6GB of free space, so it doesn't seem to make sense that it is memory related.
There are no error messages either.
Please advise - someone!?? A friend said it's been shutdown, but even if that is true, I would be able to open the application, and that is what iIm not able to do.
ANYONE? Gnutella folks?

I have also removed and re-installed Java v.6 and am thinking to remove it and go back to v.5 as some clues alude to.
I changed LW preferences to Win 2000. The same things occurs no matter what I do -
The LW box shows it's loading, then nothing. No window, no icon in the sys tray, and no error message.
Is there anyway I can go back to the old version of LW? Or perhaps there is a fix I haven't tried yet?
I'm on Compac nx6325, running Win XP, using Firefox.
I ran the "test" and that was working properly, and I previously ran LW v.10 I think, just fine.  Help? |
