Default launching after install

i am running mandrake 9.0
i got limewire to install after a fair bit of work. my problem is a rather cosmetic one
there is no executeable program to launch limewire.
i can get the program to run - and it works fine - by typing ./runLime.sh in the LimeWire directory from a console window
i tried to add a menu entry so i could launch from my menu instead of opening a terminal and typing it everytime
using menudrake i made the menu entry with the launch command...
/home/darc/LimeWire/./runLime.sh
however it keeps giving me the error that it cannot find the program -- because the launcher is a shell script, i am assuming that the menu is looking for an executable
i tried making a symlink -- that didnt work either
any ideas how i can get limewire to launch from the menu ??
thanks
P.S - the ./runLime.sh command is the only one that will launch the program --
LimeWire -- or any others that i have tried that are supposed to work will not launch it either
