anybody? please help, i installed a replacement program for the time being and its a peice of crap compared to limewire
please help

1. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire & see if that makes any difference. 2. If not, then uninstall your Java using your add/remove programs control panel & re-install following the instructions in the above link.

ok well i tihnk it worked a little, but now i need the java runtime environment update so its 1.5.0, i only have the 1.4.2

I notice these posts are from '05 so there may be a different version but I need to download JAVA again.If someone could help, that would be great

Get the Offline Java installer here Download Java software from Sun Microsystems

If you need Java 1.5 instead of java 1.6, then install Java 1.5 (take the JRE) but always use the offline installer where possible.

At least with Java 1.6, issues can occur where you have previous versions of Java installed so java 1.6 won't work properly or at all. In those cases it's best to remove all versions of java using the add/remove programs control panel & reinstall java.

Thank You very much
