Angry cant get past step 5 of the setup wizard

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, but the screen that asks if I would like to run limewire on startup simply freezes! Everything else went smoothly up until then. Please help!

Go to control panel & add/remove control panel & remove all Java versions. Then reinstall using the "Offline" version which is about 15.6 MB downld: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp (2nd on list)

Also delete your LW prefs folder as described in step 3 here Fixes for Limewire

Then try reinstalling or opening LW.

That's ok, good to hear it works for you anyway. I did almost suggest to reboot just in case but sometimes it's a waste of people's time so ...
