Limewire won't start

I just downloaded and installed the latest version and it was working fine, but ever since I restarted my computer, I double click the shortcut and nothing comes up. I tried restarting again, and reinstalling it, but still nothing...wtf?

I have a similar problem on Linux/PPC

I removed ~/.limewire, downloaded limewire 4.8.1 and started it using ./runLime.sh.

The first time I did it it did not work.
The second time LimeWire came up and let me d/l some files. After some time I closed it while some files were still downloading.
Now I can't start it again.

All I get is this

~/LimeWire-4.8.1$ ./runLime.sh
Starting LimeWire...
Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...
Suitable java version found [java = 1.4.2]
Configuring environment...
Loading LimeWire:

I waited several hours and nothing happened.

$ java -version
java version "1.4.2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2)
Classic VM (build 1.4.2, J2RE 1.4.2 IBM build cxppc321420-20040626 (JIT enabled: jitc))

Try re-installing Java. Downld the Java installer program & save it to your computer (don't install over the net!)

If this doesn't work then delete your LW preferences folder called .limewire: Fixes for Limewire A link to Java can also be found there.

For Linux it's found here: ~/.limewire

I don't know which version of Java Linux uses or where to get it ... I'm sure you know better than me! lol
