I use Limewire Basic and when I start up the program I am given a screen that tells me that Limewire has encountered a fatal error and wil now shut down. It tell's me that the error is most likely due to a corrupt installation. I have uninstalled Limewire and re-downloaded the new version but the same error still appears. Any idea as to how I can go about fixing this? Thank you

You will need to install Java and LimeWire manually First go to the first link.You can find Links to java in there Download Java to your hard drive by putting a mark in the save to disc box. Save it to my documents or wherever you save downloads from the internet. Do the same with LimeWire the second link will take you there.

Now with that done click on start then control panel add/remove programs and see if Java is listed on the list if it is uninstall it. Do the same with LimeWire if the un installers were not loaded you may have to manually delete the files. But in most cases this is not necessary.

Now click on the Java installer you saved to your hard drive and follow the instructions after you have completed that do the same with LimeWire.

Please post back and let us know if it worked.

Grandpa, I followed the steps that you had listed and I also restarted my computer. I reinstalled Limewire and Java and the same error showed up...

What OS are you using. Windows XP/2000

Ok, do the .limewire fix in the link below. Also try the fixes in the next link. Also if any of these work then let us know which one. If that doesn't work I am going to have you uninstall everything again same as above. But this time after you uninstall I want you to click on Start/My Computer/Local Disk C:/Program Files. Look in the program files and see if their is a file named Java or a file named LimeWire if there is delete them.
