If you've deleted everything LW on your computer, reinstall LW using the offline installer here (the best way to remove LW is start > all programs > right click on LW & choose the uninstall option).

What Java version are you using? It might be worth updating that too. Use the offline installer (JRE) here (install Java before you install LW)

OK this STILL didn't work... I get the following message...

LimeWire was unable to initialize and start. This is usually due to a firewall program blocking LimeWire's access to the Internet or loopback connections on the local machine. Please allow LimeWire access to the Internet and restart LimeWire.
