sachiaiko,

If you have the latest version of java then you should be ok to download. Are you getting Limewire from the offical site? It shouldn't be corrupt if you are dling it from the main site.

Remove that version you got, delete all the leftover LW folders, then start again from the official site to download the program.

You are trying to download the basic version correct? Dont keep reinstalling the version you got because it could have been corrupt. Delete it and startover with a new install.

Edited to add: Let the install be placed in a downloads folder in your c drive. That way, you'll be able to find it.

failed installation
 
hello people.. ive been using LimeWire for a while now and its great. i have 1,000+ songs downloaded..
the other day i clicked on the link at the bottom of my LimeWire that said "New Version Availible. Update?" .. so i clicked on it to update from my old version.. right.. and i go to install it and it says the i have to exit an already open LimeWire program.. so i exited it... and then i was installing it but then it said "this installation is corropted please download it again) and so then i tired downloading it again.. and again.. and deleted my old LimWire files and whatnot.. and then i tried opening LW from my desktop.. and it said "there are un nessasary files or limewire installed" .. or somehting like that and it gave me the options of "copy report" or "ok" and i clicked ok and nothing happened.. and i couldnt open the program anymore.
i also tried the link at the beginning of this thread and the exact same thing happened.. it keeps saying "this installation is corropted" .. it sadens me because i loved LimeWire and i downloaded alot of songs to put on my mp3 player.. and now i cant use it at allll. :(

so basically.. im having the same problem as the user "is this username taken?" and a few others i can see. does ANYONE have a solution to this problem?? PLEASE POST ASAP. i want to start using LimeWire again!! lol.. or if anyone has another free downloading program like this one.. let us know. IT IS GREATLY APPRETICATED. :D

:( This is so sad... at least it is for me. I'm not sure if it's even Limewire's fault!

You see... my computer went trough a whole recovery so I have none of my old files, and almost none of my old programs.

Of course, Limewire was completely erased, but when I'm trying to install it, a messege that says:

"Internet Explorer cannot download LimeWireWin. exe from www.9limewire.com.

Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.
Please try again later."


But I keep trying again later, and it DOES NOT WORK!!! But the thing is, a messege similar to this shows for all the programs I'm trying to redownload, so it might just be my computer. But I still have no idea how to fix it! Somebody... Please.... HELP!!!

Yeah... that's what I tried the first time, and when I tried it again today, the same messege showed up as before! I don't know why that messege is showing up for everything I'm trying to install... Arhhhhh.

I'm what ROX your SOX March 18th, 2006 12:12 PM

I see... (said the blind man to the deaf man). I think you're right. But whenever I do try to install Limewire, there is that '9' there, and for restoring my computer, my 10-year-old borther's friend did that while I wasn't home, so when I did get home, this is what happened. So now I'm trying to re-install Java, but guess what? A messege similar to the one I got while installing Limewire shows too!

And so I'm still stuck with this computer that is just giving me headaches... and it's supposed to be good, too! And now, it's telling me that I have no memory left on it! Psh! That recovery deleted all the files I actually WANTED! Like Limewire with the hundreds of songs I used to have on it!!!:mad:
