Stupid me. I installed the developer release of Java 1.4.1 for OS X. Now whenever I open LimeWire I get this error:

I continues to load until it gets to "Loading Messages" and freezes. I think it only got up to "Loading Messages", I don't know for sure because everytime I try and open LW right now it unexpectidly quits. I probablly need to defrag or something.

Anyway. FIX IT!

If you want to get the functionality back, do this:

To switch to the JDK 1.3.1 that came with Mac OS X 10.2, do this in a shell:
% sudo /usr/local/bin/jsettestjdk 1.3.1
* To switch back to using the JDK 1.4.1 seed:
% sudo /usr/local/bin/jsettestjdk 1.4.1
* To determine which version of java is currently active:
% java -version

Note that this is included in the DP readme. Mind you, it IS only a preview, and is bound not to work with something. I don't think limewire has implemented the new java yet, they still use 1.3.1. It shouldn't be too long before support is added, within the next month or so I'd bet.

Haywired

I never installed 1.4.1, I have 1.3.1 and i still get the same message

Sorry my fault, I just checked and it seems my brother did install 1.4.1. I just took care of it, thought I'd mention it to clear any confusion.

A few days ago I downloaded the newest version of Limewire and it came with a new Java, now every time that Im trying to download some file my monitor shuts down, it's only the monitor, the light keeps on but the image just dissapears, some toldme that it could be something in the new Java, something with the Video Card in my Mac.
my Questions are:
1: Is this true?
2: If it's true what can I do?

Please help me!!!!!
