pc linux os problems
 

i have the latest version of pc linux os and i am having trouble getting limewire up. i tried the rpm file but even in terminal i could not get it going- it said it needed the java 1.4.1 version- i have java 5. or whatever.
is there another reason why that wouldnt work?
i also tried the zipped version. and extracted it but what do i do then? i dont know how to install it. clicking on the exe doesnt work.
im so used to windows taking over and doing everything.
PLEASE HELP!!!!
