Here is what I get when I run the install file.
Error opening file for writing:
c:\program files\limewire\copying

If you pick ignore, many more come up like this.

Thanks

What you can do is get the "Other" version listed at the bottom of the download list. All you do is unzip it & use. No installation necessary. Sample of what I mean here Unzip it & use

* But make sure you have Java 1.5 on your computer before you try to run it. Java 1.5 (take the JRE) & get the "Offline" version which is about 16 MB in size.

Thanks. Still get same error. Loosing my mind here.

Thanks again.

Do steps 1 to 3 & if necessary step 5 here Fixes for Limewire. And I mean uninstall Java & reinstall using the "Offline" installer.
