After i added that line at the very end of both .bashrc and .bash_profile it still doesnt work. The Installer still returns:
Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...

Launching installer...

What else can I do??

try adding this line to your .bashrc:
export CLASSPATH="/path/to/java/java/lib/"

on my system that path would be /usr/lib/java/lib

While opening a console window this came outta nowhere:
bash: /root/.bashrc: line 14: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
bash: /root/.bashrc: line 15: syntax error: unexpected end of file

I guess that other addition to the .bashrc was not good.

And...about that error message i get when trying to install limewire....do you know what it means?? I thought it meant that there were missng files cause you know that java.sun.com says that some downloads can be incomplete so.....maybe the jre was incomplete

The classes are there, but they were not found.

Aww... I don't know what else to do so I'll just wait for another program.

Thanks trap_jaw and nDiScReEt.

If you had downloaded the LimeWire .tgz (not the .bin) for Linux, all you'd have to do is untar the whole package.

When I installed Limewire a couple of months ago I remember having a problem with the installation script.

Try the "Other" section in Limewire and download a Linux version without the installer script. Here is the link:

http://www.limewire.com/index.jsp/download_other

To install it manually do these commands:

mkdir limewire
cd limewire
tar -xzf ../LimeWireLinux.tgz

To run Limewire do this:

./runLime.sh
