hmmm not sure LotR is usually really good.

But it sounds like it might be a Java issue. Check out this link. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...ght=disappears

Can you supply all specifics about your set up such as LW version, Java version & OS version (eg-Win 98)?
What firewalls you have?
Ram?
HDD space available?
Connection type?
Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?

Finally it works! I reloaded java...And its working, but now I have another problem: When I'm listening to music, my comp freezes...I'm not sure if it's because of LW or the song...But anyway my never did that before...Do you know what's the problem???

Ok now i'm sure: It's not the songs, it's LW...

Depending on how many incomplete & shared files you have, LW takes some time to load them all up & try to connect to each individual incomplete file one by one. It's best to leave LW alone for some time (perhaps 10-20 mins before doing anything with it.) LW is primarily a downlding program so that's where its 1st priorities always lie. If its resources are too busy searching & downlding &/ loading, etc., then all its resources will be used up & LW's media player may suffer. If you still suffer issues after 30 mins with lw then it's probably best to disable LW's media player so that your default player will open & play all launched songs instead. (Tools>Options>Player & untick option & press Apply.)

If you don't have a decent mp3 player try QCD (it's free & has built-in codecs & plays everything): http://www.quinnware.com/

I forgot to mention, the files in your LW LIbrary window will not be available to play until LW has properly loaded them & accounted for them all. As soon as you open lW & go to LW's Library window you will notice these shared files are all RED. But one by one they will turn black. Not until they have turned black can you launch them.
