Invalid Popup
 

I keep getting a message that says:

One or more of the necessary files appear to be invalid. This is generally caused by a corrupted installation. Please try downloading Limewire again.

Then it posts this:

I tried downloading it again, installing it again, and then finally I just cleared every Limewire item off of my computer. I still keep getting that popup though and every time a Limewire banner flashes for a tenth of a second before. Any ideas?

Search your computer for all files named "limewire" by going to Start>Search>Files and Folders. Delete all files you find.

Then open your registry by Start>Run and typing "regedit". There you go to "Edit>Find" and make also a search with the same query. Delete all keys of limewire.

Uninstall all Java versions on your system. Reboot and then download the JRE offline installer of the newest Java version from here:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Install it and reboot again, then reinstall LW using the offline installer.
