Ive got a similar problem. My error message is:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error

Program:C:\program Files\Javasoft\JRE\1.3.1_03\Bin\Javew.exe

abnormal program termination


I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Limewire & Java plugin. Problem persists. Also tried newest java 1.4 something. Same problem. Only version of limewire that will work is 1.7
Heeeeeeeelp!
