Java JRE 1.6 Killed Limewire

[Titanius]

To whom this may concern,

I downloaded the new Java JRE 1.6 today and ever since I cannot open Limewire Pro 4.12.6.

Is this a bug? If so, can you please fix it?

If it's not a bug, please advise me as to what I should do.

Thanks.

The Java 1.6 is a beta. Some people might experience problems with it.
Uninstall all Java versions on your system. Reboot and then download the JRE offline installer of the newest Java version from here (1.5.0_09 I think):

Install it and reboot again.

Nope it's final release now, you can find it at http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

Enjoy!

Then try to download an older version (i.e. the previous version) from their archive:

I guess I'll just wait until they fix the problem...thanks anyways foolofthehill.

I seem to remember having to allow an exception for java through my firewall(sygate PF) whenever I've updated it. I'm not for sure, but you may want to check that.
