Still says Please wait installing java even after installed

[tbomber]

I installed java from the link I saw on a thread from someone who had this same problem. I downloaded it to my hard drive then installed it. I already had Limewire installed on my computer but it said I needed to install some of the components manually, so I went to the forums and got the link for the java. Trouble is, when I try to run the offline installer, it still wants to install java. Is this normal? Is it installing the java to the Limewire program? How long is that supposed to take? Is this a one time thing, or does it go thru that process each time you open the program? I really hope I'm close to figuring this thing out. After I close out the `Please wait installing java`program (the only way I can do that is with task manager) after that when I go to turn off my computer, it won't turn off. I shut down, click "turn off" but it just stays on. The only way to shut it off at that point is to pull the plug and I shouldn't have to do that. It only does that when I try to unsuccessfully open Limewire.

Have you gone through the steps below when you tried to install java if you haven't try them exactley as written.

You will need to install Java and LimeWire manually First go to the first link.You can find Links to java in there Download Java to your hard drive by putting a mark in the save to disc box. Save it to my documents or wherever you save downloads from the internet. Do the same with LimeWire the second link will take you there.

Now with that done click on start then control panel add/remove programs and see if Java is listed on the list if it is uninstall it. Do the same with LimeWire if the un installers were not loaded you may have to manually delete the files. But in most cases this is not necessary.

Now click on the Java installer you saved to your hard drive and follow the instructions after you have completed that do the same with LimeWire.

Please post back and let us know if it worked. If it did not I will give further instructions on manually deleting Java and LimeWire.
