assertion failed
 

Whenever I open limewire, I receive the assertion failed message, followed by
(program...gram files) javasoft\jre\1.4.2 bin\javaw.exe file
line 418 etc, etc...

I have to hit ignore 8 times to get limewire to open.
How do I get rid of this problem??

I re-installed java...still have the problem.
I also get the assertion message after I re-boot my cp.

no I did not uninstall virtual runtime enviroment.
I have limited computer savvy.
not sure where to look...didn't see anything in add/remove programs or in any windows program files?
