No I Did Not Get My money back and spent $15.00 AU Waiting in a "Que" on their so called a"1800 International Help number" before she answerwed and then hung up on me then left the phone of the Hook or switched me to a recording that said "Dial Before you Dig??"

Grandpa They advertised LWat $29.00 I think it was? this turned out to be US $'s thats fine however" I Never Asked for Pro or the other 2 services I was billed for???? which all came to $84?? AU??? I managed to Download and install LW for Zip from this forum where sombody had placed a link to help mugs like me so I recieved $34.00 worth of LW for a Cost Of $95.00 as well as 5 hours of wasting my time and haqving to cancel our Visa card Etc!!! so it has nothing to do with simple things and thinking whilst gazing at ones Navel Grandpa the fact is that the LW site was a DUD and I was duped along with many other people I have been reading about.

Hi Dasha,
You've been royally scammed by someone, but it wasn't LimeWire.
www.limewire.com is the only official site to download either version of LW. If you go to the site & click the 'get it now' button, you'll be sent to this page
http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml & as you can see, LW basic's free. You pay nothing.

The only version of LW that costs anything is Pro. That's $18.88 USD($23.37 AUD). There are no extra services to pay for. If you did choose to buy Pro, you'd be billed for that amount only...because there's nothing else to pay for

LimeWire doesn't have a 1800 number to call. There's no phone support at all. Pro users are entitled to 6 months of email support. Basic users can come here for support.

There are that many scam sites around, heaps of people get ripped off. But they're being ripped off by the scammers, not by Limewire LLC.

That's what I have been saying Cobba! it was when I was going thru the Search results and clicked on the "Dud" Limewire from my search result? that I was sideblinded onto the rippoff site!
A lesson hard learned! However as I have been insisting all along it was only because of someone from LW who wrote and tried to help me that I managed to salvage something out of this and it was not "LIMEWIRE the original" who "Trimmed" me but some other sidewinder I used LW a year ago and had no trouble at all" and once I was on this time no problem! So Iam very gratfull to whoever it was at LW who advised me in the first instance that I had been Ripped off" and made several attemts to indirectly assist me to get my money back and finally showed me the correct link to "Download it free" so again I thank that lady from LW" and them for their help and to all that read this it was not there fault it was mainly my own carelessness that allowed the Dud to steal my money, anyway as I have said to all! Especially if you are like me" only a computer fan and still learning" be carefull of what you do as there are some miserable S Of B 's out there who at times make all our lives miserable thank's to all who wrote.

I would like to thank ALL who helped at this forum, and reasssure anyone who may have had doubts about useing L/Wire that it is a perfectly OK to D/Load I just had a bad experience" again thanks to the Lady from L/Wire who advised me and other 's who helped and tried to help my Regards.

Check the options here Fixes for Limewire. For Java that means uninstalling your present Java & reinstalling using only the 'Offline' version.

If you have problems installing LW, then see Download ‘Other’ version & simply unzip & use! but uninstall LW first by going to Start menu > Programs > LW > Uninstall

I tried installing the offline java and it took so long i had to cancel.How long is it supposed to load...

Did you use the 'Offline' installer ? Not the one you install over the internet. Try the 13.1 MB Offine download (2nd on list) from here Download Java software from Sun Microsystems
