Default Problem with startup

Hey I'm having a wierd problem. I have windows vista and limewire has worked fine with it. i havent made any changes to my computer or uploaded any new programs. limewire will allow me to click on it, and it opens, but then when it fully opens, it closes out by itself and when i go to click on the icon in my task tray...it disappears as if i never even opened it. limewire is working fine on my boyfriends side of the computer, its only on my side its not working! help please!

Try deleting your preference folder/s...This will reset your configurations back to default and get rid of any corruption that may of happened...
