limewire crashing too!
 

tried getting rid of java 1.5, tried re-installing lime-wire, tried deleting the limewire directory (.limewire).... but limewire still crashing at start-up or when connecting, don't get a chance to set up a new proxy, any suggestions? ..exception_access-violation error code keeps showing up, running windows xp sp2

kimmer -- any chance you can post the exact contents of the error that pops up when LimeWire crashes? It'll be very helful in seeing what's going wrong.

Hi Kimmer_63

Thank you for posting the error report for Sberlin. I just scanned it and it looks pretty much foreign to me Sberlin Knows how to read those, But a couple of things I noticed you are running an older version of java and LW.

Might I suggest you upgrade to the newest version of LW. I am going to attach a link here, which has a link at the bottom to newest version of LimeWire 4.4.1: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...LimeWire+4.4.1

Sun Java, I wonder if they used the old so-called international (multilingual) installer for LW instead of the english one. It used a different type of installer (InstallAnywhere) & enforced LW to install & use Java 1.3.x

The installer was often easier to use than the english one but the Java version was the side issue. The new installer LW 4.4 uses should overcome those older InstallShield install problems. It will also enforce you to use a later Java version.
