Arrow Pc is okay

No, My Computer is running perfectly only this program is'nt responding...

Also, If i start Limewire, the program will start and it will almost not responding and there will be a black screen all around the main window of Limewire... If I move any other window in this black screen it will remove the black color which will let me see my desktop... Weird bug...

Thats all...

This might or might not help but update your Java & delete your LW prefs folder, instructions here: Fixes for Limewire: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=32552

Talking Ok i found it!

Finally I found the problem ,

I tried a lot of things to finally arrive at this point.

This program looks like having some graphic problems so I tried this and it works pretty well.

When you right click on the Shortcut of Limewire in Windows XP There is tab "compatibility".

When you unselect the Advanced Services of text at the bottom and press okay. It's suppose to work.

"I can't say the exact sentence in english because my version is in french"

When I start it now it works!
So it might help some people later on...

Thanks !
