I presume you are using Windows ... which Windows version is it?

Try this approach http://www.gnutellaforums.com/333278-post2.html & if using Vista, right-click installer & choose to run as Admin, likewise do same for LW shortcut after installing.

Another option is to choose a different location for installing LW.

You also tried installing to a different location? Perhaps even a different partition?

You can also try his version: Download ‘Other’ version & simply unzip & use!. It's called Other Systems (OS/2, Solaris, Linux) which also works on Windows. Other LW releases Download page.

I'd suggest you run CCleaner again & choose Registry tab. Having an incomplete installation is not good for the system.

Unfortunately LW 5 does not accept skins. Not yet, & probably not for at least another 6 months.
