![]() So, I just got limewire. So I'm loading.. all seems good... Will you update to pro? Maybe later... What? It just crashed? What the hell? So, I load it again. Same thing. I've got the newest version of regular limewire, and I've got the latest version of java. Xp Service Pack 2. Any help here on this? |

![]() Some people have had trouble with the latest Java. Try this version instead. Download the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) offline installer. Go to Add/Remove Programs & remove any other Java versions before you install this one.

![]() I've used limewire on other computers, but I just got this one as a new computer. I'd be satisfied with pro, except that I dont have a credit card or steady job. And now its working. Turned out that I had an earlier version of Java installed, and that might have been my trouble child. |

![]() darkmaster1055, What version of Java are you using now? Did you ever try the Java version that I linked to, in my first post? donron, First thing to try is deleting LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used much older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location). Fixes for LimeWire This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things. If you're not sure of your settings, go through LW's tools > options & write them all down, so that you can reset things later. If that's no help, try using Java version 1.5.0_11, there's a link for download in my first post. |
