My Limewire doesnt work. Whenever I try using it a message pops up it says: ONE OR MORE NECESSARY FILES APPEAR TO BE INVALID. THIS IS GENERALLY CAUSED BY A CORRUPTED INSTALLATION. PLEASE TRY DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING LIMEWIRE AGAIN. IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS, PLEASE COPY AND PASTE THE MESSAGE BELOW AND SEND IT TO BUGS@LIMEWIRE.COM THANK YOU.
