Which LW installer are you using (online or offline)?

Try this: Install Java first. Try this version of Java, use the JRE offline installer & remove your current Java version (if you have one) before you install this one.
Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11

Now reinstall LW & make sure to use the offline installer (not the recommended one).

Do you get the message when you download LW or when you try to install it?

If you're getting the message when you try to install LW, delete your preferences folder. See point 3 here.
Fixes for LimeWire

LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista


Otherwise try the 'other' installer (I'm not sure how it will go with Vista but you can always try it & see).
