Try this....
Uninstall Limewire using the uninstaller which is found in start > all programs > limewire..

Then use your computer's search to look for all files & folders with limewire in the name. If you can't delete them, reboot into safe mode & then try. If they still won't delete, try one of the tools here...
Incomplete Download File won't delete at all.


Then re-install it using the offline installer...To find the offline installer, use the link below > cancel the installer window when it pop's up and then select the offline installer link...
Lime Wire » Download LimeWire

No they are saved to your shared folder, so they are safe...

you will have to go to tools/sharing/basic then add type in the location that your shared folder is like mine is c:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Administrator\Shared or c:\Documents and Settings\your name_Administrator\Shared.

If that doesn't help...The limewire player is known not to be reliable, you could try deleting your preference folder....
This will reset your configurations back to default and get rid of any corruption that may of happened...
It may get it going again...
