Hi everyone,

I have been using limewire for sometime with no problems and now when i try to open it, the message below pops up in a little box. I downloaded a new java recently to help with using facebook as i was prompted to do so, perhaps this has something to do with? I have already tried removing and downloading limewire again but no joy. I would appreciate your help very much.


LimeWire version 4.18.8
Java version 1.6.0_11 from Sun Microsystems Inc.
Windows Vista v. 6.0 on x86
Free/total memory: 29227792/33357824

STARTUP ERROR!

Try the advice here: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/332284-post3.html

Also delete LW's preferences folder (named LimeWire) when LW's properly closed. The prefs folder is hidden by default, this link has info about showing hidden files & folders, and finding the prefs folder: LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista

Thanks alot birdy for directing me to that advice, i did the easiest things, remove the anything java related, installed the new java again with the link and then downloaded limewire with the link provided. Everything is working as normal now, sound!!
