Exclamation Limewire won't startup

I just now got my connection problem figured out, but now when I click on the limewire icon it starts to load but then stops and an error message pops up that says. Fatal Error Limewire has encountered a fatal error and will now exit. This is generally caused by a corrupted installation. Please try downlaoding and installing liwewire again. Which i did and it didn't help. At the bottom of the fatal error message you can review the problem, but all that comes up is a bunch of technical computer mumbo jumbo. I do however notice that within the text the word "java" is continually coming up. Has limewire changed was version of java it requires, because It's loaded up a dozen times and I've never had a problem before.

Try these fixes and make sure you use the offline installers for both...

Uninstall your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.12 offline version....(4th one down)
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5


Then uninstall Limewire using the uninstaller which is found in start > all programs > limewire...then re-install it using the offline installer...
LimeWire: The Official Site for the Fastest File Sharing Program on the Planet

If that does not help with your problem try deleting your preference folder...
