Try steps 1, 3 & 5 in the thread below. Use the JRE offline installer for Java & remove your current Java version before installing the new one.
Fixes for LimeWire

Also make sure that you're not using any antispyware/security that might be preventing LW from opening. Make sure that LW's on any list of exceptons/allowed apps

I'm only running Norton, which had LW on its exceptions list and is disabled for now anyway.
I tried ALL the fixes:
I uninstalled my Java, and re-installed JDK 1.6.0 (which includes JRE)
Uninstalled/Re-installed LW again
deleted the .limewire preferences folder
Tried all the compatibility settings (95, 98/ME, NT 4.0 SP5, 2000)
And attempted to run it under Administrator

The only noticeable difference was that some of the compatibility settings didn't show the splash screen. :S

I DID happen to notice that each time LW failed to open, an error log was created in its installation folder as follows:
#
# An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment:
#
# EXCEPTION_STACK_OVERFLOW (0xc00000fd) at pc=0x0353a497, pid=3764, tid=2128
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.6.0-b105 mixed mode, sharing)
# Problematic frame:
# C [nvappfilter.dll+0xa497]
#
# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:

--------------- T H R E A D ---------------
bla-bla-bla-bla lots of meaningless numbers that I doubt you want me to post.

Does that get us anywhere?

If you're unning Java 1.6, you may have to delete all other Java versions from your computer for it to work properly.

Have you tried JRE 1.5 update 10? You could give that a shot & see if things are any different.

I'm not a Norton user, but you could also try reconfiguring Norton...
