Angry Windows ME Installer

I too am one of many windows platform users that cannot install the limewire program.Im using windows ME and I get the error message "Installation package could not be opened verify that this is a valid windows installer". Is anyone in technical support listening? Ive spent countless wasted hours in the forum and read alot of advice from other users to no avail. Drew

Maybe you could try the offline installer...

To find the offline installer, use the link below > cancel the installer window when it pop's up and then select the offline installer link...
Lime Wire » Download LimeWire

Try these fixes...
Try uninstalling all versions of Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.11 offline version....

If that does not help with your problem try deleting your preference folder/s...This will reset your configurations back to default and get rid of any corruption that may of happened...
