Did you download it from the genuine LimeWire Website? Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent «
Because i have notices that a Google search "Limewire" brings up a fake LimeWire website which scams people, it is even the first result

Well my synopsis from what you have told me is that maybe the website is having technical difficulties, maybe contact the site regarding your problem, thats the only advice i can give you. Java has nothing to do with downloading a file, thats the browsers problem. You only need to worry about Java when you are opening or running the program, sorry i could not help you fully on this subject.
Try closing your browser, rebooting and then trying to download it again, if not i suggest waiting a few hours, like i said it might be the site having a fault in it.
Let me know what happens

What kind of problem are you having - is your email address not recognised when you try to download Pro? Or are you having some other problem with the installer?

When did you buy Pro? Who did you pay for Pro (check your CC statement)?

The official site for download (vendor on your CC statement should show as LIMEWIRE LLC) is Lime Wire » Download LimeWire

The official LW site only accepts CC payments & Money Order. Not cheques.

How much did you pay for LW & did you pay for LW Pro (basic is free)?

Which site did you pay for LW?

Check through your emails - did you recieve some kind of order confirmation?

I have not received any notification from Lime Wire. I sent a certified check issued from a bank and I paid 25.50 for Pro. I went to the Lime Wire site and followed the directions to send the payment to Lime Wire LLC. The office must have a record of payment, cashing the check something I would think. It has to be a matter of simple accounting. The office has my name and my check.

Did you use the 'Money Order' button to get Pro?

If you send a money order then Pro would cost $25.50... AFAIK LW don't take cheques so your payment would have to be via money order. Has your cheque been cashed??

Did you send a personal cheque?

The order page says that personal cheques aren't accepted, so maybe that's your problem?
