Hello,

You're right, the current version of the LimeWire installer doesn't like the new JAVA too well. Here is a workaround that should allow you to install until the new version of LimeWire comes out.

1) Uninstall any versions of LimeWire on your computer.
2) Download and install Java 1.4 in the default directory
3) Install LimeWire and say yes if it wants to install java 1.3
4) Go to any shortcut you plan to use for LimeWire, right click on it and open the properties menu.
5) Highlight the contents of the field labeled target and delete it.
6) Replace what you just deleted with:

"C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.0_01\bin\javaw.exe" -Xss64k -Xms4m -Xminf0.10 -Xmaxf0.25 -jar RunLime.jar

7) Done. Java 1.3 can now be uninstalled.

You can test that the upgrade was successful by opening up LimeWire and checking to see that the scroll wheel on your wheelmouse is now functional in within the LimeWire client.

Good Luck, and please let me know if this doesn't work, or if you find the directions unclear,
