Default limewire freezing and not responding

Hello I need help. We just bought a computer and installed limewire on it. It has been working for about 2 months. after not using for a couple of days, we tried to get on it and after we double clicked the icon, the window would come up and when the little notice box comes up to ask to update to pro it just freezes. I try to close the box and does not work. Everything else works, start menu, internet, but clicking anywhere on the limewire window it does nothing. then i have to ctrl alt delete and end task. please help me!!!!!!!

I was going to say it could be your firewall blocking it but it opens but im not sure it might be getting blocked.
