1. Use your add/remove control panel & remove all versions of Java. Then reinstall using the "Offline" version; Download Java software from Sun Microsystems

2. Redownload LW. But don't download the recommended one. Get the 2nd choice which is the "Offline" installer.

3. Check options here: Fixes for Limewire. Chances are, one of these options will fix your problem.
