Try changing compatibility. Right click on the LW desktop icon > properties > compatibility. If you're using XP, try running in compatibility mode for Win 2000 or NT. If you're using Vista, try compatibility mode for XP

If you have Alcohol software installed, check below.

Which version of Java are you using? Try updating to the latest Java & see if that makes any diff. Download the JRE offline installer & remove any old Java versions before you install the new one.

Are you running as an administrator? If not, do that (right click on the LW icon & choose to run as admin).
Which version of LW was up & running, before you got stuck at 12%? Have you installed any other software since then?

Do you have AllChars installed? If you do, disable or remove AllChars & see how that goes.

Which version of LW are you using now? Go here & download an older version...see whether that loads without any problems.
Old Version of Limewire Download

If you're using 4.16 now, try a 4.14 from that site, or a 4.12. If you're using a 4.14, try a 4.12 or the latest 4.16 from the official site below.
