A few people have reported this problem - but there is currently insufficient information to know what the cause of the problem is (and therefore how to fix it).

It seems primarily to be a Windows98/ME problem. I'm not sure yet if the version of Java makes a difference.

The best I can suggest is that you try fiddling and see if anything makes a difference.

It may, or may not, be worth installing/re-installing a latest version of Java - look on the LimeWire website download section for a link.
