when i jumped on my limewire yesterday a small box appeared and it said
"one or more necessary files appears to be invalid. this is generally caused by a corrupted installation. please try downloading and installing limewire again. if the problem persistes please visit Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « and click on the support link. thank you"

then this crap is listed below it. i tried to reinstall limewire, and i do but it keeps saying when i get to the part where i have to click "finish" that limewire is currently running and i need to go to the lower left hand of the computer to click "exit" on it. but when i go down there, there isnt a limewire icon. HELP!!! im afaid im gonna have to uninstall it and loose all my music! thanks to anyone who has advice!
